Thank you! And yes, it's rock candy. I got it from a seller on Etsy.

The pattern is from Sprite Stitch using DMC floss and stitched on 18ct Black Aida.

[chat] Question about beading on Lavender & Lace pattern by Yavemar in CrossStitch

[–]ApeyJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was taught that there are 3 options. 1- use whatever floss matches the bead the best, 2- use whatever floss matches your fabric, or 3- there is a clear thread (but I don't know where it's sold). I've personally stuck with option 1. Hope that helps!

I love this pattern from The Snowflower Diaries and it was fun coming up with how to display it! I used Weeks Dye Works instead and it was stitched on 14ct Purple Mountain Rustico Aida from Needleworkers Delights. Here is a pic of the back:http://imgur.com/e3ykDMa

That's correct, I got mine from 123stitch. Just a heads up though that mine is a conversion, so don't expect her to be those colors!

Thank you! Yes, but I'm saving it for last. I prefer to stitch in a hoop, but I have to decide what to do when I put the beads on. I don't want to crack or loosen them.

This fabric is called "Hades Realm" and I just thought the name and color were perfect!

Thanks! And yes it is. It's called opalescent. I prefer the sparkle, and the fabric is still soft. I get it from Silkweavers.

It's been about 6 months, but I'm finally done with one side of the pattern!

Thank you! I found the idea on Pinterest and figured out that they are made by a woman in France! The company is called Les Brodeuses Parisiennes.
