Mel's Sunday Update

Just a quick post ... I had to do a mini happy dance.  All the cross stitching and back stitching on Vienna Ball is complete.

Now to start the beading .....

Well alright, now to bed.  Beading after work tomorrow.....

Now I bet that looks amazing!
Am so stoked that you have all the xs'ing done here and are onto the beading.

Sooooooo, where's the photo with the beads??? Looks great so far!!!

As soon as I figure out how to iron it, I'll post the pictures. It is indeed now completely finished.

Try face down on a clean, well folded super fluffy towel. Use stem to remove the creases and then leave to dry flat.

I'm not game to use that much steam on this fabric. It can never be washed. Its *already* massively sunfaded at the top from when I left it TWO DAYS sitting over the lounge.

Have I mentioned I will NEVER be using this fabric company again? It will need to be museum-quality framed just to preserve the fabric colouring.

Eep..Museum Glass adds mucho extra $$'s, dammit. Must go back and see whose fabric you used to avoid having any kind of similar problem.
