This is not going to be easy, there are sections along the edges that have little aida left to join with. What has made it even harder is that the vertical join is not a straight one but has a step in it where the previous sections were not evenly matched.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglEQWVT-YowEOsV0nxjmoEGC659UsMj7QciFOyC6fbXB-2QCy_g7-fuziDi8ToasReKN-xtzfLW3LNwfFq8bopyaD1rJeHE2CnnYE49lwSkwz1awsaEY8_tRjNcpPKZ4H6nDGKJPrTZ3ec6IkNwT3E_UoxEwtB0NLXYMxwAHZA3iTzb1oYeWW2kAtk/s1210/1%20pinned%20in%20place.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1210" data-original-width="908" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglEQWVT-YowEOsV0nxjmoEGC659UsMj7QciFOyC6fbXB-2QCy_g7-fuziDi8ToasReKN-xtzfLW3LNwfFq8bopyaD1rJeHE2CnnYE49lwSkwz1awsaEY8_tRjNcpPKZ4H6nDGKJPrTZ3ec6IkNwT3E_UoxEwtB0NLXYMxwAHZA3iTzb1oYeWW2kAtk/w480-h640/1%20pinned%20in%20place.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p>The first stage is to pin in place the new panel.

However I have been stocking up on the Doctor Who figures from Warlord Games since their Doctor Who licence expires at the end of 2022 so I want to ensure I have as many unique characters to paint later when I get the time. It's just a shame there were so many non-released packs that are only available if spend £75 and cannot be bought separately. </p>DJ Kettletyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02894271723686842984noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6981927766387155852.post-22099206654416883572022-11-27T14:00:00.008+00:002022-11-27T14:00:53.844+00:00Doctor Who Tapestry - November Update<p>It feels as though I've had a lot less time to spend on the stitch work this month.

So whilst we wait for the results of the next Parliamentary lottery results to come in I've updated Sylvester's first season to show the Dragon with the background completed and the prisoner the biomechanoid was guarding, the criminal Kane.

It's more designed for cross-stitch rather than tapestry, I found the tapestry frame somewhat impractical as you have to stitch the whole canvas onto it, not something I could do when joining panels to the main body either. This hoop is a much thicker hoop, I've not seen any like it recently so it is a case of make-do-and-mend.</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh94pGWOdtzDVQ0ELuliaGzKZdy3tIH24iQhcnb8YT6XIuyB1aasj9zv7sTUWCI1Ju_PaFrm0mPoAPgvcWi519LwMH3Fg0G_Icvi10p-wGD-Y5XPvQVy6QbyhMt1BG4SXDe0IrbCu076m7NR18f5zAE4SQjVCLqaUyGjHiyamwHpvsLvm6ky2yxyg6L/s1257/Full.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1257" data-original-width="1036" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh94pGWOdtzDVQ0ELuliaGzKZdy3tIH24iQhcnb8YT6XIuyB1aasj9zv7sTUWCI1Ju_PaFrm0mPoAPgvcWi519LwMH3Fg0G_Icvi10p-wGD-Y5XPvQVy6QbyhMt1BG4SXDe0IrbCu076m7NR18f5zAE4SQjVCLqaUyGjHiyamwHpvsLvm6ky2yxyg6L/w528-h640/Full.jpg" width="528" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>It gave me the opportunity to take a photo of the current panel, and also finish the back edging along the right hand side that will eventually become the outside edge of the main body when this is attached.<p></p><br /><p><br /></p>DJ Kettletyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02894271723686842984noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6981927766387155852.post-82924510490682202422022-08-09T20:00:00.002+01:002022-08-09T20:00:20.197+01:00Doctor Who Tapestry - August Dragons<p>Quick early August update now that the Dragon has practically been completed on the tapestry and I'm moving on to tackle another from Dragonfire...</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNCvHLl6QaMBfeIJgMEbD_ZvgnMzMEN8eJEl6_LHQMKN9EEAz0JcqABjCqwxkjmmasvlMZRE0H_Cyhvoh_d6vE0u8dF8tv2KVJ--nP0R_3U58B5I51EJb4OwVX8Z6dV3_vtnDCogQ28kAKITid9tuPeScoByrtrL13CVJxMURZOHwPTg2KhyQk14hl/s1131/Dragon.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1131" data-original-width="849" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNCvHLl6QaMBfeIJgMEbD_ZvgnMzMEN8eJEl6_LHQMKN9EEAz0JcqABjCqwxkjmmasvlMZRE0H_Cyhvoh_d6vE0u8dF8tv2KVJ--nP0R_3U58B5I51EJb4OwVX8Z6dV3_vtnDCogQ28kAKITid9tuPeScoByrtrL13CVJxMURZOHwPTg2KhyQk14hl/w480-h640/Dragon.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>DJ Kettletyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02894271723686842984noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6981927766387155852.post-260339355145622642022-07-27T20:26:00.001+01:002022-07-27T20:26:10.998+01:00Doctor Who Tapestry - July Update<p>July has been a slow month for the tapestry.

The gallery pages cover the first two Pertwee seasons, <a href="https://djksfantasyworld.blogspot.com/p/doctor-who-tapestry-season-07.html" target="_blank">Season 7</a> and <a href="https://djksfantasyworld.blogspot.com/p/doctor-who-tapestry-season-08.html" target="_blank">Season 8</a>.
