Rotation Changeover - 2025 Rotation #2, Slot #4 (Not Counted Thread)

Good progress on the vintage crewelwork kit "Majestic Eagle".   I got all the upper foliage done except for the little pinecone bullion knots that will go in at the end.

Next time this comes up in the rotation, I will focus on the three sprays of needles that are under the bottom branch.   They are both smaller and less complex than the upper ones, so I am hoping for a finish in the next round (fingers crossed).

  1. Those pine needles look very realistic! Gail at the cozy quilter

    1. Thank you. I finally just embraced the randomness and it all worked out so far! I've (re)discovered crewel is a lot more forgiving yet stressful than counted thread.
