The piece will look gorgeous when it is finished. Good luck with de-stashing and then limiting new purchase of stash. It can be so easy to just buy a couple here and there and then suddenly you have a huge tub and no way to use it all. Plus you want to be able to pick out new fabric sometimes too. Maybe getting rid of it all and just buying a piece for a project will reset the buildup. <br /><br />Let us know if you want sympathy, support or slaps.

That's a step in the right direction.<br /><br />I am loving your lantern design. The backstitching really sets it off.<br /><br />Happy stitching!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00074597722929095455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663751962319871004.post-89663404215604401452017-05-24T14:10:36.333-05:002017-05-24T14:10:36.333-05:00The backstitching really brings out the colours in...The backstitching really brings out the colours in the design.<br />I am so envious of your fabric stash! Apart from gifts I only buy hand-dyed if I have a specific project for it. Even with birthday money it's still a luxury item! A nice treat though.Jo who can't think of a clever nicknamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663450738390351663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663751962319871004.post-2181617710250848882017-05-24T10:44:08.771-05:002017-05-24T10:44:08.771-05:00Great progress on the lantern design....the colour...Great progress on the lantern design....the colours really pop with the back stitching!

Clever use of the threads too for the backstitch.<br />I thought I had a lot of fabric in my stash but by reading your post, I think I still have a long way to go to catch up with you :)<br />I find I have bought a lot because I initially liked the shades but now notice I prefer stitching on evenweave rather than Aida... Does that mean I need to buy more fabric? I'll have to be good and go through what I have. Good luck with the destashing. Be ruthless, but not too much, we never know ;)Mii Stitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00208947393068786371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663751962319871004.post-86516316336078828422017-05-23T13:46:42.558-05:002017-05-23T13:46:42.558-05:00Beautiful work on the lantern!

I've been doing fairly well at trying to use up what I get in my FOTM club with Chromatic Alchemy, but I'm sure I have a good few years of fabric in mine as well. That being said, keep us in mind when you destash. :DTiffstitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17747755148727768850noreply@blogger.com
