Wolf Spirit

Remember a couple of months ago, I got this kit from Michelle?


I started working on it around August 12 and it was framed by October 2.  Wish I'd noticed the discolouration in the frame before I got it home!

    Beautiful, JoJo! Is that counted cross-stitch? I used to do those years ago and found it so relaxing.

  2. Yes, it's counted cross stitch. I started doing them 10 or 11 years ago and I'm addicted. I have run out of wall space though so I can only salivate over the wonderful kits that are available! I especially love ones that have a mixtures of beads & thread, with charms and/or buttons.

  3. I used to love to do counted cross stitch. And, wouldn't you know it, all that I did, I gave as gifts and never kept any for myself. Unfortunately, my eyes aren't what they used to be. Plus with working full-time and raising another little one, I just don't have the time. Oh, well...

  5. It's MUCH better than the illustration.

    Couldn't you get a little bottle of stain to touch up the frame?

  6. I agree with Di.
    I could never do something so intricate and beautiful! I have no patience with anything involving needles.
    Jojo, its absolutely stunning!

  7. I did something like this once when I was in college and I can honestly say, you are very patient. lol It looks great! Maybe as Val said, you could find something to touch the frame up. That wolf is absolutely beautiful!

    I used to work in a frame store and they have special crayons to do touch-ups on them. Go and check it out.
