Crathorne Bug - design and colour

Design

Colour ways

Stitch ideas

ColoursI was due to teach this design to a needlework touring group on the 1st October 2014 in Crathorne Hall Hotel in Yarm, North Yorkshire, except we had to evacuate as there was a fire in the roof, so I never actually starting teaching.I promised the group that I would blog the working of the design once they were back home again (Australia, New Zealand, USA) - so here we go . . .It may take me a little while to get going as I am mid-term with a load of students with day to day admin, but I will get there.Above is the design, and my working drawings, and colour ideas.
