This dollhouse pattern is a treasure. Small but full of details, every single cross stitch and back stitch are meaningful. And because suddenly I only had half my time to make cross stitch, I spent 2 months to make it, rather than my one month target. Here are my day to day progress:
|
8 Oct 2014: first day of the project. I use erasable pen to make 10x10 grid, to ease the counting |
|
11 Oct 2014: three days later, finished all the brownish part |
|
13 Oct 2014: day 5, finished the yellowish stitches, and half the red part |
|
16 Oct 2014: day 8, the progress seems fast. finished the red and the greenish part |
|
21 Oct 2014:day 13. with the pinkish stitches, this project started to take its shape |
|
25 Oct 2014: day 17, finished the blueish part. now I can see the curtains :) |
|
15 Nov 2014: day 38, the progress is sooooo slow. I was getting frustrated for not having enough time to stitch. But finally I finished all the stitches! |
|
26 Nov 2014: day 49, I HATE DOING BACKSTITCH!! It took me 11 days just to do it. But then it's worth it. With the backstitch, the contents of this dollhouse are more visible, for example the washbasin, the mirrors, and the lamps. |
|
28 Nov 2014: day 51, I soaked the finished cross stitch in warm water to remove the grids. Gorgeous! |

03 Dec 2014: day 56. Framed. And perfect!! |
