Two more leaves &

Using four strands of Splendor 844, I used the stem stitch to fill in two more leaves on the lower right tonight.  They take me a while, but they do look good.  Almost all the leaves have directional lines on them and I am working them as drawn.

Oh, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy New Year back!

This is looking great. Are you mixing colors of Splendor for your leaves? They look shaded....

This is going to be a great project. I do love what Ann Strite-Kurz did with this piece and I know you'll also do a fabulous job with it. After all, we have had plenty of snow to inspire us and keep us inside and stitching.

Thanks! The leaves are showing that due to changing the direction of the stitching, not that I mixed threads. It is all 844.
