Moorish Splendour is Finished

Last night I put the final stitches into Moorish Splendour.  This was a fun design to stitch - and I will be stitching another one in the purple colorway sometime later this year.  The colorway that is shown reminds me of paprika and is a great autumn piece.

    LOVE it, especially the colors. It looks very Moorish. Is this chart available commercially or would you be interested in selling it to an old ANG member who just rejoined after years of illness. I missed so many beautiful pieces. If you're willing to pass it along, please let me know. Thank you.
    Blessings,

      The piece reminds me very much of a Moorish tile.

    Lovely! Zimmerman pieces are always better in person due to the metallics and play of light but this still looks gorgeous in your photograph.

      Thank you. My photographic skills do not do justice to the piece. The metallics really do "pop".

      There is quite a bit of metallic, but I think it really adds to the piece.

    I love the end result of Moorish Splendour, and yes it is autumnal but very vibrant. Hope you are not swealtering too much in the heat. Its been really hot and sticky over here and have been battling with the constant rain, though we have been fortunate in not being flooded like most parts of the United Kingdom.

      Thanks, Lisa. The temperatures have been very unusual, and the rain has been scattered so not much relief there.
