My contribution to the arts for 2020
Click to embiggen!
I designed it myself, using graph paper and software (Jane Greenoff Gold from around 2002 which I HATE and really need to upgrade to something reasonable, bu I digress). I stitched the house on the right and decided I hated the contrast, so the house on the left is a shade darker. I stitched using an unholy amalgam of Anchor and DMC threads from my stash.
I'm planning on updating the chart to show (DMC versions of) the colors I actually used, then releasing the chart as a PDF. Who knows, maybe Reddit will like it and other people will do it.
A friend of mine want to know if I'm selling them. LOL! I am slow and easily distracted and we'd probably be halfway through the NEXT pandemic before I complete another one. It was fun though.
P.S. Sorry for the terrible photo. I was excited!
P.P.S. This was my first time embroidering a hashtag. Also my first time actually embroidering a swear word. (They are always a part of my process but they're normally just said out loud, not captured in thread.)
