:wub: Helga!

You are making fine progress on this beautiful design Nicola.

In my humble little opinion it doesn't matter if 10 stitches are stitched or 100, or 1000, each stitch is a stitch that wasn't there before and that is progess :D

Also it's great to see you posting again :whoop:

Helga is adorable :-) - she looks a bit as though sh'd standing on tippy-toes, peeking over a fence at us!

I am still stitching Helga but I'm also stitching a new Wrendale 'Flight of the Bumblebee'. I've named her Phoebe and this is how much I've done of her and what the finished kit looks like. I have swapped a couple of the colours in the wings and will be using two Etoile threads which I bought a few months ago. I think it will give a nice effect and make the wings sparkle a bit!

I've also just finished a little model stitch for Kate for a card design and she's given me another one as well! Lots of stitching going on just need more hours in the day to do it all :doh:
