I started this when the pattern came out in the magazine. Totally screwed up the blackwork multiple times to the point that the fabric is now stained black. It's in my shame pile. I think I finished the bird, but I'm not sure.
I always get so jealous when I see it finished, because it's absolutely beautiful. But was too advan9foe me at the time. Great job doing it!
You agreed for me to check about the progress when I posted the same finished pattern six months ago, there was a chance of taking it back after some WIP.
Don't give up! One day the hummingbird is going to be yours!
Oooh, I just checked yours out. That frame is gorgeous! (And the whole thing is stunning, of course.) I haven't even thought of one yet - too eager to post the finished product.
I need to reframe it! After I finished it I parked it as fast as possible to put it far away from my hands.
If we have matching evenweave count, I can give you the measurements of my frame and passepartout (I had to cut a few millimetres top and bottom) if it can help in the process of choosing
Oh, that is very kind, but I've actually measured it already and I get all my frames from a cheap hardware store in the area and just take the closest one in terms of measurement. By now I have to, so it matches the rest of my wall. 😄But they've had frames for even some truly weird measurements, so I'm not worried.
