Discworld

Post by Pyper »

I have always been a massive Discworld fan and got inspired by a pattern from Moxi. I tinkered with the colours a little and added in detail to make it more like the original image. It is using 4 strands on 14ct black aida.

Should keep me busy for a while, but I hope to finish it by christmas (uni permitting)

This any better? If not, it's here: http://twitpic.com/6ih2li

I'm pretty...undisciplined when it comes to stitching. I pick a colour I like and when I get fed up of it, usually move to something else. Right now I'm trying to get most of the turtle done.

Looking great :) You are way ahead of me. What are you planning to do with the stars? I haven't decided whether to put them in or change the colours for them a lot first
