Navajo rug - stitching completed!
Hooray! I've completed stitching for the Navajo rug!
My total stitching time ended up being 189.5 hours. Whew! This was stitched on 32 ct Joblean in parchment.
This project was based on a contemporary Navajo original weaving that Natalia Frank of Scarlet Sails Miniatures charted for me (image earlier in this album). I made some minor alterations to Natalia's chart for my final rug, including choosing my own coloration to go with the furnishings and décor I had in mind for its future home.
Up next is binding and finishing, which should take a few more hours. I don't usually count finishing time since it takes whatever it takes. This rug is destined for the Brownstone (at this moment), but I will take some setup shots once I have it completely finished.
