DUCJC Day 25

Today's pick is another Erica Michaels piece. Here is what it will look like when finished...
It's called Beach Blessings. There is a little bit of a difference in the one I'm doing. There is a border with Myrtle Beach and 2015 in it. I'm sure you won't bet where I got the pattern haha. Yes Yes I know it's another ocean themed one. I'll try to do better next year picking not ocean stuff haha. Anyway here is my progress...
I'm doing mine on 36ct hand dyed Molino evenweave. I also bought thread pack so I'm using GAST threads. I'm really enjoying them so far. I didn't get a lot of progress today because it was catch up on chore day haha.

Tomorrow is my last Ursula Michael new start (for now haha). It's a patriotic one this time.

Another lovely little design Katie! I hope you've got a little are to put all of your ocean-themed projects together. Can I assume that because you're stitching on hand-dyed fabric you're not filling in all the background? As for tomorrow... the eagle perhaps? :)

Justine said...

Such a sweet design and the fabric is gorgeous! I agree with Rachel, I hope you're not stitching the background.

Why am I not surprised to see another ocean-themed piece? Lol. You made wonderful choices and I love them all. I never can decide if I am mountain type or an ocean type. I love the sea but mostly I'm more drawn towards the mountains.

I loved stitching this one! I used linen, and it looks wonderful! Made it into a cube finish... Great start so far! Hugs!
