Finished Cross Stitching The Raven!

YAY! I’m very excited for this stitching finish

The Raven – Designer: La D Da 
Finished Stitching The Raven by La D Da

I hope you can see the sparkly effect from the opalescent fabric in the picture, because it’s quite lovely in person. 

The Raven by La D Da cross stitchI used the DMC threads instead of the silks that the chart model is stitched with. (The silks to DMC conversion is included with the pattern.) For fabric, I used 28 count opalescent Jazlyn in Chocolate Vanilla Swirl by Silkweaver that I had in my stash cabinet.

Happy Stitching!
Loretta
