Hello everyone, Just another update of my geisha for you all ( I always say my geisha, Ive stitched her for so long now you would think I would name her! :whistle:

)

well the sunshine has well and truly now gone, and in replace they have forecast snow for tomorrow (boo!) Poor Scotland has already had six inches, and I am all fingers crossed that us Welsh don't get the same tomorrow, but on the bright side I am not working tomorrow so that if it does snow then I will be warm and cosy inside with my stitching, as everything else needed doing has been done, so I can concentrate some hours to Geisha tomorrow.

Below are my updated pictures and I have finally completed her beautiful fan that she is holding, it was such a potch with swapping so many different colours and took such a long time, and now I know why I put it off for so long

A little close up

Fan all finished! :applesauce:

Hope you are all well and the weather isn't too bad where you all are

Oh I wish I could bring the weather all the time (I would have sun all the time then!) If my predictions are right from last week for you, then it doesn't look good as we have snow forecast for tomorrow - I really hope you don't have any at all, there's nothing worse!

The fan was worth all the time you put into it. It is lovely.
I'm glad you don't have to worry about your weather tomorrow. Stay in and stitch and be cozy. We're getting into summer right now (We almost skip Spring) and the weather is warm and humid for us. Could change, but not too likely.

Oh how I wish I could have your weather over here, it is just so unpredictable, the whole of the UK was basking in sunshine lastweek and had highest temperatures for March for years, and now this week, it is freezing, raining and forecast snow - how different can you get in a few weeks :roll:

All it took was for my sister to land at Heathrow on Sunday morning I guess. I think they are on their way to Paris, so France had better watch out too. They get back to the UK next week I'm pretty sure. Going to Ireland I think and then back to London for a few days.

She is beautiful

- and I can't believe how quickly you stitch (and everyone else on this site, for that matter). That would have taken me a couple of years I think.

Looking forward to seeing the finished project:-)

Good Morning everyone,
Just a quick post today (have a day off and promised myself a stitching day)

I have been extra good at stitching for the past week - and lots on the weekend and have completed so so much, which I'm delighted at obviously!

Well after this picture taken, I ended up completing the top of the surrounds and the left side rose, and then finished up the right hand side of the sky, so the whole of the top half of the geisha is completed - yay!!

Well... must get to it.. for now I Stitch

Hope you all have a very good Monday
