Oh this is coming along beautifully. :applesauce: :applesauce:

You are brave indeed to stitch such a large design in hand.


I think you've made the right decision, to do whatever works for you is the right decision

:applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: I'm so glad to see this one again. And if stitching in hand works that is what matters. Vanessa stitches all her masterpieces in hand so it is clearly a system that can work. If it speeds you up also, I might give it a try! This is one of the most fun designs. Spangler is one of my favorites and you are doing a perfect job of stitching!!

Lovely update, it is a great, colourful and fun design, I love it. :wub:

Stitching by hands means that it will be so much more accessible when you have only a short time to work on it ( no set up)

I’m back with an update. This is my progress as of July 11. I’ve done a bit more but have a cat on my lap who doesn’t want to move so I can get my phone. :-)
