Lana has just completed The Gazebo, one of the patterns she was considering in The Stitcher's Dilemma. With non stitching gaps during our Queensland trip, it has taken about 6 weeks to complete.
The pattern uses a combination of one and two strand stitches to provide depth and focus. The background and paving is mostly one strand giving a lighter effect. The back stitch around all the critical parts also brings out the gazebo, paving, plants and hedges.
It was nice to be able to stitch a smaller pattern and finish it in a shorter time period.
Lana has never really kept track of time each pattern takes but I think my accounting desire for measurement may be rubbing off!
