Well, as this is my first post, I'm not really sure how this will all turn out. But I'm willing to give it a try.
This is where I am going to post all my cross-stitch stuff, so everyone out there on web can take a virtual peek into part of my life. You'll find my finishes, my starts, my works-in-progress, any updates, and a even a little bit about what makes me tick.
Right now, I am working on The Runekeeper Saga by Jennifer Aikman-Smith. I've decided to split it up into 12 individual pieces that will hang on my kids' walls. My son likes the dragons & castles, while my daughter loves curling up against my arm while I stitch her "princesses", as she calls them. I'm currently on The Maiden. The latest pic is above, and you can see my daily progress at http://rockwoodstitches.shutterfly.com/ I'm still working on how to best take the pictures, with flash or without. Let me know which is easier to see.
Looks great so far. I always take pictures of my progress with flash.

Nice work, Ray!
ReplyDeleteAs far as photo taking, I try and use my daylight lamp whenever possible. Then I don't use my flash. I find that gives it the truest color to what you are using. I think the flash washes the color out.
