Murky Manor my next UFO

This is a design by Glendon Place. It is stitched on 28ct Dawn Cashel Linen by Picture This Plus. I am using DMC floss with a few Anchor, beads, JABC buttons, Kreinik metallics and Caron Wildflowers. It became a UFO last October when I put it away to do some Christmas stitching and when that was finished I worked non-stop on the Peacock Tapestry. Progress will be slow on this because I will be doing it occasionally for a change from the two big projects I am starting. I was a little disappointed with the fabric, when it came it seemed to have areas covered in a linty substance which had to be pulled away. I do not do a lot of stitching on hand dyed fabrics so this may be normal. Happy Easter fellow UFOers.

Good luck with your stitching on this one. I'm sure it'll be sufficiently spooky when finished.

Happy stitching to you.

A lovely fabric. I really look forward to seeing this one grow.

I just went and searched the pattern. What fun! I look forward to its development.

I've never had that problem with PTP fabric - must have been a fluke, hopefully! Nice start!
