I got quite a bit done yesterday. I finished the 4 ancient runes and started the time turner. I stitched the necklace chain part using one of my DMC metallic gold floss. I started stitching the time turner with metallic, but had a hard time getting it to look right, so I pulled out the metallic and used DMC 729 instead. I’m happy with it so far. What do you think? Can you see the detail or should I use a darker gold thread or lighter because of the brown fabric? Should I leave the metallic gold for the chain or redo it with a gold thread instead. I’m looking for honest opinions please, even if I need to frog. :)
Here is a close up of the time turner and ancient runes.
It looks better in real life, but doesn’t show up in the photo as much.
I love your rune stones!
ReplyDeleteI have to be honest and say the gold doesn't show up terribly well in the photo. Have you considered stitching a line of brown around the yellow/gold? So it looks woven in the thread?
