I've been working on a semi-ambitious embroidery project. It's a design from Klaus Holitzka's Native American Mandalas coloring book called 'Rising Rain Deity'. I was originally thinking of giving it to Jody, but it's rapidly becoming the needlework equivalent of something you'd hang on a refrigerator.
This is the original from the coloring book:
I was attempting to do a button-hole type thingie with the small ring in the bottom circle. I was planning on making the button-hole an ochre yellow & stringing a bead in the center of the hole. It involved snipping the cloth into a cross & stitching the excess cloth underneath the button-hole stitch. You can probably see where this is going, huh?
Yeah, I made a nice, awkward, too-big cut across the top of the circle. I'm not sure if it's salvageable.
