Anne is Ready for Tea Now


Anne Stradal (she's the owner of ABS Designs) has finished her vacation stitching another designer's Japanese portrait and is ready to celebrate. Here's the blog entry describing her final touches to Nippon Textures.



The above is the companion piece to the Squiggee Three Women and a Peach which I just finished (and need to get on that album cover). It is really worth a visit to Anne's blog to read how she stitched this piece. It is similar in some ways to my stitching of Three Women and very different in other ways. Click on the photo to enlarge it and you'll see why I have been asking Anne to do stitch guides for her pieces for years. (Ok, the truth was I've begged and begged, especially for the fabulous Door canvases you can see on her website by finding the link on the left top part of her blog.)
Lovely collaboration, Anne and Gail!
