Yesterday, outside of playing with the new machine (which makes buttonholes in 30 seconds while I watch!) I worked on the motif of the week, the Celtic knotwork on the medieval coif. Here is how we are progressing:
Disclaimers! I am not really worried about keeping my filling even. I am filling the knots with chain stitching, and while I would normally stress on the stitch consistency. For this, I'm not really concerned...no real reasons why, either, lol.
I inadvertantly left my gold/mustard wool at the Western homestead so the fill is plain old DMC floss. I am using a double strand so that the fill goes faster; the plan is to have this project done by the weekend for the Viking Village. (And, well, it is a motif of the week, and the week is almost over ; )
The colours that you choose look lovely :-)
