Ridgewood Needlepoint's "New Stitch Monday" series is tackling a mahjong sign. First, Stephanie worked the background around the word and then beaded the letters. (This is a 13 count canvas, by the way, from Maura Nolan Designs).
Now for the backgrounds behind the N, S. E and W.
The tile with two flowers is done. It's quite pretty. I like fly stitch for leaves.
Pink dragons are the cutest! And Stephanie's right--Baroque Silk is a greNat thread.
Now we move on to the green dragons.
The final design is the joker. Of course the different blocks repeat so she has to finish all of them before framing.
