APRIL Stitch-a-Long - Samplers

[MeiTow]

Alright here are my bands finished. I may attempt to try and add a border and stuff at a later date so that is why I'm not posting it in the finished samplers thread.

I want to make a special note on the guitar hero band since I know it's hard to see what I did since it's in reverse colors Since I'm a lefty and I play the game quite often, along with Rockband, I put the frets in reverse "lefty" mode since that would be how I played it. So the green reverse color is on the far right, then red, yellow, blue, orange.

I'm done stitching. Pictures to follow shortly!

Well done all who made the attempt! When you finish, please don't forget to post the picture!

I hope everyone enjoyed this little event, whether you watched or took part. It's been fun to work together and see how the samplers progress. Thank you to all who designed bands and helped out with suggestions and things!

I've pretty much finished the first 3 bands, and will attempt to do the 4th tonight. Will post a picture tomorrow morning hopefully!

I love the reverse color stuff! It's a really cool effect.

Decided to hop on the satin stitch train for my lettering on the final band. Kind of hard to see in the picture, but I really like the effect.

I really enjoyed making it. When I have a bit of time at the weekend I'm going to do the edges and make it into a wall hanging for my workspace

I love what you did with the Sprite Stitch heart, BMH. What a brilliant idea. I'm really enjoying seeing all the creative twists everybody is taking, with the color choices, borders, techniques, etc.

I love it! Looks great!

Got mine done a few minutes ago.

Here's the whole thing.



And here's a close-up of the bottom. Outlined the words in the same color as the border. Debated putting my username somewhere, but can't find somewhere that it will look good.
