Does anyone know if there is a version of this that doesn't have the background charted?
I LOVE this owl!!! Does anyone know if there is a version that doesn't have the background charted? I'd love to use a hand-dyed fabric that simulates the background, instead of stitching all of that... I'm considering 3 Picture This Plus fabrics - "Gothic," "Mystic," and "Phantom."
The chart is black and white, and there are only small differences between floss colors in many areas. Biggies: 1) It's hard to tell exactly where the sky ends and the flowering branches begin; 2) It looks like there is water (a lake?) showing between the branches in each bottom corner; and, 3) It looks like there might be some silhouetted mountains and/or trees in the far distance.
It's my first time "removing" the charted background - and my first project on dark fabric. I emailed Kustom Krafts with my question, but they were not nearly as helpful as I'd hoped...
Any and all suggestions from my brother and sister stitchers are very welcome!!! Thanks!
