I’ve been busting to share that Crescent Journey is going to be the 2023 Stitch of the Month! The five colorways were revealed today at the exhibit for the ANG 50th Anniversary Seminar.
Starting in January 2023, instructions will be released monthly. I also explain how selecting colors needs to consider value. You can see that influence in the various colorways because different features appear more evident than in others.
Congratulations on having the SOTM for 2023! Your design is beautiful, and I can’t wait to stitch it. I look forward to reading about choosing colors for the design.
Looking forward to completing this piece with 8 Flags Needlepointers in Fernandina Beach! Will the materials list be made available prior to January? Congratulations.
so glad i found your blog. Is it possible to print a copy of the SOTM colorway you used at the top of this blog? I am stitching mine in an oranges/green colorway. Enjoying the project and monthly excitement. Do you think that the Orna Willis class with triangles influencdd you at all?
I have been able to download the instructions without any issue for the SOTM. Absolutely enjoying the project. Just was wondering if there is a way to print the top of your blog since the blue/green colorway is large on your site.
