Sahara Sketch
Saturday, January 29, 2011 at 12:10PM Well, finally here I am with the Sahara sketch I promised. It is difficult to create a sketch that has the "feel" of the finished design. I have sketches of stitches I plan to use and this is where I plan to place them. But sometimes it becomes necessary to move things around, not to mention threads and beads, etc. 
If you are comparing what was previously shown and what has been filled in, you might notice the small squares at the bottom. The new squares are Tila beads, not stitches. And you can see there will be some solid areas of stitching as well as mixed areas. But the biggest difference is there is more color now, with more now.
I plan to get back to stitching it in early March and am looking forward to it. I received some threads in the mail today, in just the right colors, and am anxious to try them out!
Happy stitching...........
