Fyrsta myndin er tilbúin!

Fyrsta myndin búin af 12
Ég á reyndar eftir að gera stafina fyrir ofan en ég er ekki enn búin að ákveða hvort ég ætli að hafa textann á íslensku eða ensku. Það kemur í ljós síðar :-)

Happy dance!

I've finished the first day of the 12 days of Christmas that I was talking about earlier. I still have the text left to do that says "A partridge in a pear tree" but I've not decided whether I have it in icelandic or english.

It's just so adorable! :)

(Yes, I had to come right away to see how it looks like.;)
:-) Thank you. I knew you'd be tempted to come back :-D
Very Cute, Rosa!
I love it.
Hehe, hún er æði!
Ég er svo skotin í þessum myndum. Ætla að hella mér í þær þegar ég klára jólasokkinn fyrir dóttur mína!

Hi Rósa,
Congratulations!
I think it is beautifull!
The fabric is lovely too!
Bye Juul.
That's so cute! Congrats! Are you going to stitch them all?
Vá hvað hún kemur vel út í þessum java! Ég hlakka svo til að byrja á þessari!!
Ég er rosalega ánægð með þessa mynd og javann líka. Takk fyrir að koma og skoða :-)

I am stitching them all and making them into a wall hanging like in the magazine. It's the biggest piece of fabric I've ever stitched on :-)
I was so inspired of your work I ordered the magazine with the first four.I have the second 4.

Thank you for your blogging.Wonderful days of embroidery

Hi Rósa,
Are you using the (weird)colour green they suggest? I mean the one they use on the turtle?(dmc964) Or am I the only one who thinks this colour is weird? (For a turtle)
Athough all the animals are a bit weird..... ;o)
Bye Juul.
I'm glad you're inspired, Ulla, I bet you're gonna enjoy stitching this :-)

Juul: I am using all the colors suggested by the magazine. I think the colors by themselves aren't always a good judgment on how they will look once the whole picture is stitched. The green color is kinda weird but I'm going to use it. If I don't like it I can always frog it :-)
Hi Rósa,
I will watch and learn from your colours.
;o) Juul
hehe weird colors tend to change when next to another color so I think it is best to keep the right colors unless they really are out of it like you really don't like the way it looks.

Rósa hún er æði hlakka svo til að klára mína
Hi Rósa,
The sparkles in the fabric are they gold or silver?
And what threadcount is this, I ask because today I saw a fabric that looked a lot like this, it had golden sparkles, but I am not sure if it is the same threadcount. It was more coarse-threaded.(bigger holes)
I think yours looks great!
bye Juul. :o)
