I was going to wait until Monday to up-date but since you asked so nice this is were I am. Didn't stitch last night as we had hockey tickets so this is all I have.

I got a bit close so you can't really tell but all the top boxes are complete

Everyone's really moving with this one. I just finished the center square today and am working on the top left corner now. I am finding it quicker now that I'm not worrying about everything being seen thru the linen. I will take about a half day break from this one this weekend (Sunday probably) to do week 6 for the other sampler.

I find it goes quite slowly for me. Partly because I was so tired all week, didn't have much time to stitch, one evening I even went to bed without stitching, can you imagine that! Also, I am in a quite a bad mood, and it may affect my stitching. Tonight I was doing the top middle part, and that little band with the three colours took me an hour or so, because I didn't want it to look through, so had to invent the order of stitching in a way that I could always anchor the thread. I am so tired, it was like a logic puzzle :) :lol:

ive used a variegated thread for the middle "live, laugh, love, stitch" and im quite happy with how its turned out, not i am thinking of using it for the x's in the 4 boxes, and maybe the backstitch text round the middle box, what you think?

heres the update pic:

Rose and Lisa, both projects look great. Isn't it funny that they are the same and yet the colour changes can make them appear very different. I love both versions!!
