#78 ~ Colin the Crow Marches to his own beat


Progress as at 24 April 2019
Mini Crow on Crescent Hill (aka Colin the Crow)
HAED Chart
25 count evenweave from Katzxstitch
Zweigart Easyguide stitched 2 over 1 tent stitch



... although with DMC Tin (#1), it is fairly difficult to see what that beat is!  Keeping to the diagonal is a challenge as Tin is about 1 shade darker than the fabric, and about the same shade as the little x's marked on the lines.

Now I'm getting the hang of tent stitch (not continental, that was a step too far) it goes pretty quickly, and apart from one small section on the left hand side where you can see that I have run under the stitches at the back, I'm happy'ish with how tent looks.

It's been a busy old day today, and I am bushed out so only managed 220 tent stitches.  The #50kxstitchchallenge page and Time Stats have been updated, and I'm off to catch a bit of Location, Location.

Keep calm and carry on stitchin'.

Hugs
