Wow....so I'm now on my second row of actual filet using the pattern.Let me tell you, going from staring at these little stitches to words on a computer is really giving me a bit of an headache!! I'm surprised how easily this is going!! Really, it takes a LOT of counting.
If I had any advice before starting a project like this, I'd advice counting, double counting and triple counting of your chains before starting!! Thankfully, I counted enough times to get it right so all the letters and spaces are in the right places!
It's starting to look like something!!! WOOT!
(Here is a shot of the filet rows starting to form letters!!)
Hey there Lady! Just checking in and see your filet is going well! Those are some long rows! You know, when I do mine, I do them what I guess you would call sideways...then the rows are shorter and less to tear out if you make a mistake. Does that make sense? It's looking beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I wish I had thought of that!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt totally makes sense, and I feel silly for not having thought of that myself!
Heh. Oh well, chalk that up to experience!
