All the outlining

I finished the outlining!  I have started with silver Kreinik and am doing Smyrna crosses next.  A couple of other people have pulled this from their stash and are going to stitch along....maybe they will send me photos and I can post theirs too!  Hint! Hint!

Outlining

It is the frame weight!  I did more of the outlining.  Each area is counted as the stitches change direction.  It is difficult to see that they do, but they are!  Hope to finish the outline later today or tomorrow for sure and then the filling in begins.

Starting new

I finished the stitch guide for Barbados and have been trying to decide what I want to work on next....something from the stash would be a good idea.....I have been trying to choose between three.  A  piece that is a box cover....one of DebBees's designs in reds, and the frame weight by Jim Wurth......guess what won?

Final bling

Some crystals and beads add the last of the bling to Claudette!  She is a very happy fish!!   The final piece:

The sprays

I have stitched the black sprays in basketweave with Neon Rays and Fuzzy stuff!

A bit of wave

I am adding a wave down the center of the panels using Silk Lame in a very very pale blue/white.

Moving on!

I finished the last of the beads on the blue panels.  I have also stitched the blue diamonds and added the crosses in the centers.
