It often takes something that catches my eye to draw me back to the design pad and just yesterday I ran into such an image. Of course it was over on the Graphics Fairy ( do you ever tire of me telling you that?).. It was an image of two Seahorses that inspired this design.
This is a computer generated stitch image of the design I am currently working on... the computer generation is so good that you can even see a flaw I need to fix before I even stitch the first sample! As you see I jumped deep into the color-pots with this and the pink and green are so fun but it would also sew out very nicely tone on tone for those who embrace a more calm color view! Adding the Candle Wicking-esque was inspired by my friend Cathy over at Stitchfork. Her's use of CW got me to thinking and this design seemed a great place to put it!
I can't help but think that this image has a bit of Mackenzie-Child's sort of influence to it. I have long loved MC stuff, and while some of it is a bit over the top for even me, my closet passion for such seems to seep more and more to my life these days.. maybe some day I will make the full plunge into such a color and pattern saturated life!
I suspect the new design will be up some time next week if not before then. So check back or sign up on the e-mail notification at the top of the page since I will be giving away 10 copies of the design when it's ready!
Want to test stitch it for me on your machine?
It's 5x7 and I would need you report back by the end of the weekend
If so leave your name and machine type and I will pick 2 people for the task!
