Petal Fairy XL

Hello friends. 
I'm stitching Petal Fairy on a 14ct. beige aida instead of the linen it requires (for reasons stated in my post a long time ago). And I did not expect it to be this HUGE.

Yep, I said huge because it's covering most of my body while stitching. Please, no questions about height. I think I plateaued at the tender age of 12, lol.

Here it is, with 2 shades in.
 Do you hear what I hear? Doesn't it look like a giant ear?
Can't avoid those creases due to handling difficulties.
I caught DH eyeing my swamped state. That look that either says he feels sorry for you or he feels sorry for himself...or maybe both, haha. (Oh well, as long as I'm happy, I know he's happy).
Thanks for visiting. Happy Stitching!

  7. Yes it does look like an ear. Pretty ear though haha. Have you ever tried a Q-Snap frame? That would help keep the fabric out of the way for you. I couldn't live without mine now.
