CROSS STITCHING...In the Shade of Love... |
This is a cross stitching done by me.
Cross-stitch is a popular form of counted-thread embroidery in which X-shaped stitches in a tiled, raster-like pattern are used to form a picture.
Cross-stitch is often executed on easily countable evenweave fabric called aida cloth. But, here I used a frame.
We have to count the threads in each direction so that the stitches are of uniform size and appearance.
This form of cross-stitch is also called counted cross-stitch in order to distinguish it from other forms of cross-stitch.
To customize it I just left one portion of the thread free instead of stitching. In final outcome it gave a 3D result.
Try it. It really needs patience and composure to a great extent. But, once you complete one, you will really love it.
Since my wall is ivory in color, I gave a black frame for it.
Try doing one and enjoy the fun.
