Sew Sapphire

An unusual alphabet and pretty motifs in vibrant sapphire blue - Sew Sapphire. It is stitched 1*2 on 40ct white Wichelt linen with HDF Sapphire silk thread and hemstitched with white DMC. This chart is now available *here* or click on the CHARTS button on the sidebar.

I am hoping to finish the hemstitch tutorial shortly - photography is not my strong point and I need to re-take some of the photos. Please bear with me.

Thanks for visiting

Take care

Its lovely Carol - I look forward to your tutorial too, hemstitching is not my strongest finish, so it will be nice to learn from a master.

Very nice Carol. I too look forward to your tutorial. I'd like to finish a few off like this I think. x

Each time I see one of your new designs I think that one is my favourite - until the next LOL.
Sew Sapphire is certainly a beauty.
I love the elegant style of lettering and of course the gorgeous colour you chose.
