Round Two!

Just a quick post!  A day off today, so I spent the morning starting and finishing Mabel's second instalment in her Round In Circles SAL:

Round in Circles SAL - Round Two
 
I used a variety of threads, including some #8 Kreinik braid that I used for the whipped backstitch and some of the square filets. I'm not a fan of Kreinik as you know, and the #8 braid is worse than #4 - but it worked well for this project, possibly because it is on 25ct.
 
Hopefully I'll be back in a week or two with some slightly larger finishes!
 
Happy Stitching!

  4. Well done on another finish. I love the colour scheme but feel lost with the mention of any stitch other than "cross"! :)

  13. Another nice design. No-one is a fan of #8 but it does fit this project.
