So I decided to break from the plan (all the metallic whole stitches next) to do some of the detailing around the face, because I was tired of being stared back at by some sort of weird vampire zombie. OMG the backstitch on this one is EEEEEEEVIL! Half of it seems to be on half- and quarter-stitch boundaries. I'm doing this on Aida, people!

At least it's making the metallic stuff seem more reasonable. And at least the art deco lady looks like a lady now and not a zomby woof or something.

I was going to try to upload some pictures today (honest!) but the overhead light has just gone, so I think my time might be better spent looking for the weird bulbs and a ladder. Boy it's dark in here. =/

Out of curiosity, why did you decide to do it on aida?

Because I'm a chicken, because I'm a creature of habit, because I already need new glasses?

Mostly because I'm gullible and the damn magazine SAID TO USE 16 COUNT AIDA!
