Crazy January Challenge 6/15 "Moment de Calme"

I had some difficulties starting this since I couldn't decide whether to stitch it one over one or two over two threads. I chose one over one and now I am not sure it was the right decision since it has not been a joy to stitch for one reason or another. I like the chart and I like the colours so I guess if it starts to feel too bad to stitch this I'll start again two over two. Or maybe my mojo is missing today and everything will feel nicer tomorrow. :)

Chart: Jardin Privé "Moment de Calme"
Fabric: 28ct Cashel linen, colour: raw
Stitched with one thread over one

I love seeing so many designs in this Challenge that are unknown to me! This is another beauty! It looks wonderful over one!

It looks beautiful. I love the look of 1/1 but not fond of stitching that way.

I've never enjoyed one over one. But, your pattern is cute. Hope you find just the right way to stitch it so that it makes you happy.

It looks lovely stitched 1 x 1. I never liked stitching that way until I bought a wonderful magnifying lens. Now it's not so bad.
Good luck!
