So, as most scadians do, I have a list of projects to do. Most are for friends and some are for me. I have been whittling that list down and to be honest its almost empty. One of the most recent projects I finished I said I would make for a friend about a year and a half ago. He created this absolutely stunning tudor outfit for himself and I made the comment blackwork cuffs and a collar would add a nice touch to it and said I would make him a set.
Well, as real life gets, time got away from me, kids kept me busy, work, etc but I finished them last week. Here are a couple of pictures of them.
Its black cotton DMC thread on white linen. It took me about a week to get all the embroidery done.
I mailed them off to the gentle last week and am waiting to hear of when they arrive. I hope he likes them...and remembers i said I'd make them! HAHAHAHA!
