Hello, I am looking for this pattern. It was created on stitchboard. It is a face with a finger on her lips. It is amazing and I want to crochet.
Please can you help me
Hi Melanie, haven't been on in a long time. Just too many things and not enough time to enjoy any of it. I am still working on the vulture tapestry, about 6 inches left to finish the loomed part. Then the "real work" will begin tucking in all the 311 warp threads and attaching the vulture permanantly to the bottom right corner. And deciding how I will attach it to the Mesquite limb I have waiting for it to hang. And of course getting it to its new forever home.
Here'a the newest pic of what I have gotten done since the photo I added last year. I can only get about 4 lines of beading done to it in a day of beading since it takes me 1 1/2 to 2 hrs to pick up and lock down each line of beads. I measured how many lines in an inch and it comes out to 13. You can see I have made progress since last year's pic. I did take a couple of months or so off from working on it through the Christmas holidays so i could bead a few gifts for friends locally and online. It was a nice break in working on this big rascal.
Sooo, given I am not a mathematician and not sure of the correctness I figured it out to be 221 lines of 310 beads for a total of 68,510 11/0 seed beads for the loomed background when finished and will be 20" wide by 17" high. When I look at that total of beads it will be I can see why it has taken me well over a year to get this far. And that bead count does not include the vulture which is done in 11/0 Delicas peyote stitch and hard to get an exact count due to it being a freeform shap. Needless to say I ahve not attempted to get a bead count on it yet. LOL
Hi and thank you for responding. I am working in crochet
Hi again, mmignardi,
I just made an update regarding the image on the pdf cover page.
The new version defaults to show stitched items. This should be how you wanted it.
If you do want to change the appearance in the future, here's a link that explains how to do it.
Hope this helps!
Terry

Shaleigh,
Always look forward to
your updates...thanks so much for posting them! It's such a joy to watch a project
taking shape. So many times people do the projects but very few
post even the finished ones, and some don't post that at all. So
it's wonderful to watch your progress!
And I'm so glad
you like me living vicariously through you on this.
You're
really making great progress soooo quickly!
The grape cape will be lovely! I personally can't
have enough purple and it looks so divine.
Hope the color turns out as well as you want it to.
