Heathwitch’s Stitchcraft

Baptism Card…

I’ve a quick cross stitch finish to share — well I say “quick” even though it took me around 12 hours to complete! I suspect it would have taken me less had the lemon thread not kept tangling on every stitch! That said, I ended up doing some colour substitution on this piece — I didn’t have DMC numbers 445 (light lemon) or 742 (light tangerine) and I had no time to go shopping, so I checked DMC’s Online Colour Card and replaced them with numbers 3078 and 741 respectively. I think it worked out just fine.

This was a card I did as a gift for my Dad — I think it turned out beautifully, and he loved it. :-)
