Edit. I am not the tidiest of x stitchers am I having the loose bits of gridding thread showing? :oops:

Lovely!

Nothing wrong with loose threads, if you saw the state of mine "in progress" you wouldn't be at all worried about yours, which looks beautifully neat!

:applesauce: :applesauce: That is so lovely! One reason I take a photo of my work every evening is to see my progress, to see loose threads and missed stitches.

Thank you very much. Now finished this quarter & just started left hand side. Again photo taken at an angle but the very pale yellow, blue & pink shades do not show up on here. When I see it these add even more depth to the sky. So pale that when stitching had to keep checking against white bundle on card where I keep threads.

Such lovely subtle colours - it's annoying when it proves almost impossible to take an accurate picture, but it looks really beautiful even so!
