New start on 'Owl' by Sabine Rich (reward chart from Love Thy Thread)

Hi guys

How are you all doing to day?

I have been quite sick lately and therefore unable to work on any large project. And I feel so guilty not stitching anything. You know I am such an addicted stitcher. So while staying in bed, I thought I should pick up something small that I can stitch on the hoop but I can't find any lol. Then when I was surfing through my iPad, I realized that 'Owl' by Sabine Rich requires only ONE color which is incredibly good! I don't have to sort any thread and keep changing the color! The other good thing about this chart is that as it's no background chart, it allows you to stitch on beautiful hand dyed fabric (which I don't have in hands). The original artwork is a sketch by Sabine Rich. So it should have the same effect :D


Here how it looks from page 1-5:

Stitched on 28 count linen in cream. 1 x 1 full cross. Traditional cross stitching lol

It should look like this when it's finished:


The only thing frustrates me is that this chart contains 20 A4 pages (*cry a river*). Not a good sign that I will finish it anytime soon. But hey, I can just imagine finishing it in a throw pillow and hug it all night LOL

xoxo
