Even 2 wouldn't work on this fabric (I tested).

The inspiration and imagination you've shown is outstanding, and a mini portrait is just a fabulous idea! However, I do think you have made one truly incorrect assumption, which really in no way detracts from the intricacies of your project. I'm pretty sure you have used SIX strands of floss (from looking closely at your close up photo) -- and yes, that would be pretty tight for a 28 ct fabric. Floss comes in a skein, when you pull out a length of floss and cut it off there are 6 strands of thread there. One is supposed to pull out individual strands from the bundle of 6 strands, and if stitching over one thread on 28 ct fabric one would normally use only ONE strand from that six strand bundle. Stitching with one actual strand you would have taken just as many stitches but you certainly would not have had such a difficult time getting the threads "through the hole". I look forward to seeing Poe in miniature...but try him with ONE strand of floss (two at most), you may find it much easier to do -- and it will actually "LOOK" a lot more delicate. Congratulations on an outstanding piece of stitchery!Yoyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14230651257160627560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33514301.post-42427431914277970812009-04-27T15:58:00.000-04:002009-04-27T15:58:00.000-04:00Jaime, it's actually Morse code.
