Wow! This is such an undertaking! Your prpgrrss so far looks great such pretty colors.

It looks great!

You certainly won't get bored doing this one - there's so much going on. Grear start.

Ooo love it I love Christenson art and this one is definately a biggie!! I will enjoy seeing it come to life.

glad to hear you are having so much fun w/ this.( i can't imagine me doing such a huge project, but we all know how that can change because of this forum!)

your sitiching is lovely - so even and tight. this is a great start...

Wow I could never take on something this big it would never get finished, you have made a fantastic start on it and I'm also interested to see what all the nursery rhymes are

Not really an update, I was going to wait until I'd finished the first page (hopefully some time this weekend) before I did a proper post, but I just had to thank you great guys on this forum. If you'd asked me a year ago what parking was, I'd have said it was something to do with cars. But now I can't belive I can do ten different colours at the same time! It's a good job too, as I'd be there forever tying off and starting again.

I don't park very much, but that is exactly what mine looks like when I do. I mostly cross country or cross county (I call it that because it covers a bit less distance) stitch, but have parked occasionally and I don't take the needles off either. So I am pretty much limited to no more than 10 colors also. I get a bit confused though so do it very rarely.
I love this chart and you can never have too many updates (I think I said this before but it is worth repeating).

You have made a great start and well done for having a go at 'parking', it will come second nature by the time you have finished this one? Lots of photos please?

what a beautiful start!! Great stitching and well done on your parking!!

That's a fantastic start! And great job on the parking! I can't get myself to do it.

Great start, it's looking lovely already It'll be nice to follow this one and seeing all the details coming out

That's amazing! And I'm so impressed with the parking. Tried it one and couldn't get the hang of it, so TEN! That's just wow.

Great choice of pattern too!
