Years ago my mother started this Australia sampler for my father. She got a poor eyesight over the
years, so now I’m going to finish it for my parents. I share a weekly update to
keep me going.
Great progress this week.
I started working on the Mimi spirit at the right.
After a few days it looked
like this. I already added some backstitches at the bottom.
And yesterday evening it
was almost finished. It only needs some white cross stitches and a black backstitch
outline.
This is how the Australia
sampler looks now. I hope to finish the Mimi spirit soon, so I can start to
work on the next item.
I had to Google Mimi Spirits to understand, but I think this is a must for the Australian sampler. With a black back-stitched outline it will be even more striking.
