    Lovely cross stitches, love the strawberry thief, William Morris designs are favorites of mine. Those banners must have taken a lot of hours chicky. I especially like the second one, was it harder working on the evenweave rather than the Aida fabric, it looks much harder to keep the stitches even(I’m a coward and have always stuck to the Aida).. Pretty photo Fire.
    Marne la vallée, basically just outside Paris 🇫🇷, but definitely Scottish at heart.

    @Jacquimcmahon I find evenweave ok to work on (although occasionally have to resort to my trusty illuminated magnifying glass) - and I like the finished effect better than Aida.  I would urge you to give evenweave a go on a small project- you might be surprised 😲 
  • Zoomed in on it @chicky
    Its really amazing work,no wonder you needed your trusty magnifying light.
    The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.
