This has got to be the biggest piece I have completed and the only piece which brought in some money to my pocket. :p
I have regenerated the pattern for this logo a million of times until it have me something I am happy with. The letters were easy to figure but the little flower on top the 3 letters(ali) were a little bit tough and knowing me, I would like to have the closest result to the actual flower.
I took the actual logo to the handicraft shop and tried to math the colour that made the little flower. It turned out to have 5 different colour. To pick he colours of threads was fu. But the drawing bit, almost killed me because I can't draw. Hahaha I had drafted te little flower in my graph book many times until I decided to simply draw it on the red aida with the washable ink. And no, I didn't have to erase anything on the cloth. One try, tadaa! Then I stitched! Should have just drawn on the cloth from the very beginning. "=.=
Completed this in 1 an a 1/2 week. Not too bad. Looked simple but it still took some time.
Red Aida was used as the background as there are a lot of red and no way I'm gonna stitch that amount of red. I have used white felt to be the border which I think is great because it give a good finishing to the piece(it is also how the actual logo looks like) and it obviously saved time! Sooooo more time to stitch more pieces. ;)
Anyhow, here it is! It is now placed somewhere in Thalia office. May it make it to the next fair.
