A progress pic

Un ange passe.... started 22 Feb 09

I could tell you were keen to see a start on this cute little freebie, so I thought I'd better get into it today. Just the way I like them, it will be quick to stitch. Although I'm doing it over 1 it's still fairly easy to do.

The picture above is done on my scanner because the light wasn't the best for taking photos, sorry.

All the colours you see so far have replaced the recommended ones in the chart. The brown is the same one I used in Chocolat (DMC 3860), then there's Crescent Colours Secondhand Rose (pink), Poblano Pepper (green), and Toasted Marshmallow (white), then finally Gentle Art limited edition Pale Aubergine (purple). I'm always nervous when changing colours, but so far I'm happy with how it's turning out.
