Last night I worked on O'jishi's background ang also tested my idea of using one strand of my Watercolours (Chili 217) for a border using the same stitch as in the background. What do you think? I am not certain myself whether this is what I want. I probably will need to work on the central mask before I decide whether a border of faux bamboo or this stitch will look good. However, I don't like filling in the Watercolours area with tent stitches in the same thread. I think those central tent stitches between the Alternating Cashmere Pairs need to be in a gold metallic.
What do you think?
Before I forget, there is a new Kelmscott magnet featuring a crown and new scissors out. I saw them on the Needle in a Haystack blog.
