2026 Year of 100 Starts: Start #31 - Stained Glass Christmas by Ink Circles

Time for another Ink Circles design! I think this is the first time I've used a designer twice in the 100 starts frenzy. I really love her designs though. Here's another one of my Ink Circles finishes from a few years back: 
Wings and Things by Ink Circles
Stitched 2 over 2 on 28ct Haunted by PTP?
with 001 Kreink #8 braid and Dinky Dyes Down Under Blues

Tracy Horner has brilliant design ideas and excellent colour sense. I purchased this from her website a few years ago, and this seems like a good time to start it. 

I haven't quite decided if I'm going rogue on the colour scheme with some of my stash threads or will stay with her charted colours. For right now I plan to do the black outline first, then deal with the colours another day, probably far in the future going by my start. Here's where it is so far:
Stained Glass Christmas by Ink Circles
stitched 2 over 2 on 28ct light blue Jobelan
with DMC 310 so far

Not much of a start yet, but I think you can see that I'm working on the chart that is in the top left. These are Pattern Keeper friendly, which is very helpful. A long way to go on these though, so don't hold your breath for a finish any time soon. 

Hope your stitchy days treated you well!

Happy Stitching,

Tiffstitch
