It is stitched 1 over 2 threads with Week Dye Works thread. However, the pattern says to stitch on 30ct. linen, but I am stitching mine on 36ct. I think 1 thread on 30ct. is just too thin.

Now I know that this is a new pattern, but I had pre-ordered it a couple of months ago. I also got the last of the 6 Fat Men patterns and will have to finished that one up as it is a Christmas gift!
Have a great weekend and thanks for visiting :)

It's lovely! Thanks for sharing your photo as I resisted signing up for this. Now I can live vicariously through your lovely stitching.
Very pretty.... I'm looking forward to following your progress on this SAL.
I have been waiting for someone to stitch part one so I could see it in reality!! It is beautiful~~ And, your hand dyed 36 ct is just what you needed...I love the shading in the linen.....Nice job for sure! Take care, Faye
A beautiful start.
Beautiful stitching! and I agree 1 over 2 on 30ct would be to thin for my taste too.
A great project!
BRAVISSIMA MOLTO BELLO,CHISSA' QUANDO LO FINIRAI SARA' STUPENDO,CIAO.
