Double Up Progress Report #6


I've been working on Double Up, slowly but surely. I have finished all the Shrimpies (otherwise known as Crescents)and the Spratts Head & Waffle variations in the Triangles. So the Triangles are done except for the background T-Stitches. I'll work on that next. I find this piece difficult to work on at night because it is on Congress Cloth, and I don't always get a chance to stitch in the daytime! Once I get the Triangles done, it should go pretty fast.

This is magnificent! Beautiful. My days of painting on Congress cloth are long gone, and I haven't tried to stitch on it for 15 years. Not even in daylight with a magnifier.

Love your colors! This is going to be gorgeous. I like Congress Cloth but don't do a lot on it anymore. After a rug on Congress cloth, I will give it a rest for a little while. Keep working at it - I really want to see this completed.

This is a lovely piece!Your "shrimpies" are perfectly uniform which for me is hard to achieve. Love the colorway you've chosen and looking forward to seeing this completed.
