Please join me for stitch and chat on the Attic Needlework's exclusive from Hands Across the Sea, Jessie Challinor 1904.

This is the Attic's shop model, which is being stitched on Legacy Linen 38 count Wayfarer's Cloak with the called for Soie d'Alger silks, plus 5 extra colors picked by me to complement the charted colors (if you'd like them, call or email the Attic and ask for the Katie pack). A fuller explanation of my additions and color choices is in my flosstube 91: youtu.be/Mj3BaU5sm8k

I am writing up all of my changes and adjustments to the chart - this will be published in full once I have finished stitching and will be available on my website, or from the Attic.

You can find my 'how I cross stitch' video here: youtu.be/eM2jSoQVz2k

I refer to wet blocking in this video after finishing to smooth the fabric, remove distortion, and square the piece up. You can find my tutorial on wet blocking your cross stitch here: youtu.be/1Q5CGZULhU4
