I stitched Winter Queen when it came out. Glad you are enjoying this. Do not forget the black to create the ermine trim. 😊
I have Winter Queen as a WIP. For 20 years. I changed the dress colour to lilac.
My Summer Queen took 12.5 years to finish and I didn't even change anything. I don't know why some projects like to maintain their WIP status for so long, but it happens. I bet the lilac looks wonderful. I think the dress for Winter Queen is a great template for color conversions
I started the MFE current years project in Feb. Decided not to do it as a SAL, but just at my own pace with 3371 & 3750. I can't imagine doing it without PatternKeeper as it is 35xxx stitches. Enjoying seeing your variety of projects - and best of luck on those stockings....
Thank you for this video. I am also a bit obsessed with Mira’s right now. I was so motivated to finish stargazer as I was watching you do yours. Then I got autumn queen. Yeah bc I saw you doing it. Now I just ordered winter queen. You are officially a Mirabelia enabler. 😂 I love every minute of your videos and your projects. ❤ bless!
I have wanted to do the modern folk piece as well but I have only been stitching a year and never have done a large piece and I only stitch Aida right now lol. Are you going to start in the middle? I am always curious with large pieces how one does it
First of all, you can absolutely do it on Aida. My next Long Dog Sampler is going on an 16 ct Aida and I have several pictures in my house that are on Aida and you can't see the fabric type from several feet away. Never feel like you need to change your fabric choice unless you want to do so. I go back and forth on center starts and upper left corners. I've done both and for the MFE 2024 SAL, I'm going to start in the upper left as I know the piece is big enough and I didn't cut it 😂 Really though, there is no cross stitch police that will tell you that you are stitching wrong by tackling a big piece doing a center start on Aida. And the part I will say about any of the larger project, they stitch the same as smaller ones, you'll just have the same WIP going for a longer timespan.
