Chat Cola – Custom stitching by Roland Brideau

One of the things about some of my best charts is they look fairly simple looking at the finished project. However, they really weren’t that simple.

This one Chat Cola, might just be that. When I responded to getting the new image. I said how great it looked and I wasn’t lying. I love seeing these charts and I think you are the most amazing stitchers.

Here is Roland’s response. “Yes, the Chat Cola turned out great.  I was surprised to know that it took 31 color shades for the scratches and 15 color shades for the letters.”

For me this piece is a great example of a fairly small chart with some amazing detail.

What do you think?
