Baker’s Dozen by Michele Roberts - Diamonds! Phodes Balloon Bargello

I finished second shape from the series Baker's Dozen by Michele Roberts. It is Rhodes Balloon Bargello - Diamonds!

The size of finished square is 4" x 4". I used 1,5 cards of Rainbow Gallery Neon Rays Needlepoint ribbon N15, 1 card of Rainbow Gallery Fyre Works metallic ribbon F5 and 3 different colors of 3 mm bicone aurora borealis crystals.

I am very excited to start working on another shape.

Baker’s Dozen by Michele Roberts - Hilton Amadeus Clustered Hearts

I finished one of the Baker's Dozen by Michele Roberts - Hilton Amadeus Clustered Hearts. I made it square shape.

I added white pearl beads 4mm and 6 mm as the instructions call.

I have an idea how I am going to use it, but later about it.

I can't wait to start working on the next one.

The ribbon hasn't arrived yet, but I added a little character to my piece - Japanese beads, size 15.

Hopefully, I receive all supplies I need in a short time and start fully enjoining stitching.

For now these square looks like this

Baker’s Dozen by Michele Roberts - Hilton Amadeus Clustered Hearts

I started Baker’s Dozen project with a design that is called Hilton Amadeus Clustered Hearts.

I used Rainbow Gallery Neon Rays ribbon NP120 for background and Trebizond silk goldish color for 8 Amadeus hearts.

I chose to stitch a 4" square instead of an oval shape. Loving texture a lot. This is probably the most important part that I was missing while doing petit point on silk gauze.

One card of ribbon was not enough for my square to fill up. So, while I am waiting for another to arrive, I decided to add some beads to the hearts that instruction doesn't call for. It won't take long time and I will update the process shortly.

Have a wonderfull weekend,
