CJC Day 28 - Twilight Le Mans

A friend from the Cross Stitch Forum gave me this chart. DH is a big race fan and I like the misty, end of day look of this chart. I'm stitching it on 28 count Lugana that's very similar to DMC 3753, the main colour in this chart. I think stitching with the thread will look interesting on the similar fabric, so I will stitch the entire chart. 



I'd also like to get a hold of the Twilights Bike Shop chart, that one looks really appropriate for our interests. The whole series is beautiful, although I don't see these stitched up often.

I managed this much today:

That's some of the blue above the cars and between them as well as a line below the car on the left. 

The chart has some fractional stitches that aren't difficult on this 28 count linen and I think this may be another possible finish since it's not very big and there are decent sections of one colour. 

Happy Stitiching,
