Description: She is the embodiment of a luminous summer's day, her brightly colored clothing swirling as she strides energetically through a sunlit garden. She is surrounded by a border of golds and vining floral greenery, accented with beads and specialty stitches. Night is the companion piece.

Background Information: Day is my attempt to capture in human form what I feel could be the essence of day. She is full of brightness, energy and promise, just like every new day (whether the sun is shining or not!) As humans, most of our activity is naturally concentrated into a few very hectic daylight hours, which pass all too quickly...


Stitching Comments: This design is smaller than many of mine, but is just as challenging as the larger ones: lots of both quarter stitches and blended floss colors. The simple specialty stitches offer a bit of stitching variety.

Specialty Stitches: square eyelet, diagonal satin

Important Tips: Charting Technique, Organizing Floss, Miscellaneous Tips
