This is the Day Progress

This is the Day

This is the Day

The house is stitched using CC Wild Berries on the front and CC Red Currant on the side. I used CC Blackbird to fill in the windows and on the door to give it a little more contrast. I used CC Cocoa Bean for the roof. The grass is stitched vertically using WDW Kudzu.

I am enjoying this one so much! I may get back to it or try to work on Titania a little bit. She's been neglected lately! I really would love to get it finished soon for my friend! :) Write later!
