Okay, so this isn't a small, but it's something that can be stitched mostly in one colour, so let's pretend it won't take very long.
I debated about what threads to use for this one, and what fabric. I ended up choosing a fairly simple blue fabric without much variegation, and that made me think about some variegated threads instead of black. I dug through my Silks4U advent threads, again, trying to get through them instead of just having them sit there, and here's what I chose:
And here's my start after a few thread lengths of the PR124:
My Beautiful Village by Maggi Co's Village
stitched 1 and 2 over 2 on 28ct blue evenweave
with Silks4U threads
The top photo shows the fabric much better, but the variegated thread seems to show fairly well in the lower photo. I think this will work well, and be a little more interesting than plain black. I have enough black stitching in my WIPs and new projects to come, so I'm glad to have some colour.
Hope your stitching is going well and the weather is treating you well,
Happy Stitching!
