Charmagne, your Seasons design is lovely - looking forward to seeing your progress!

I didn't get any done on mine yesterday - it was my company BBQ starting at 2pm so I ate too much, drank too much, roasted in the sun and got home exhausted about 7pm so did nothing but sprawl about in front of the TV until bedtime, hahaha.

I did, however, manage to get DMC 3746 yesterday which I'd run out of, so at least I can make some progress today.

My needlecase is done:

I also added my initials to the back:

I am glad at how it turned out. No more needles around the place :lol:

This is what it looks like opened, you can see that the inner fabric is a bit taut, I had problems with different 14 count materials. But it worked out quite well, it is easier to fold. :)

And a close up of a corner (the other one doesn't look as good as this, though :lol: ):

Well done for finishing your needle case Agi. I finally managed to do some stitching on my UFO last night. I stitched for 4 hours and only managed a small amount. I can rember now why it wasn't fineshed, there are loads of 2,3,or 4 stitches that only use the same colour thread so it is always stop start. Never masterd park and stitch.

This pattern is over nine pages 3 full pages and 6 half pages. I have managed to stich 1 full and 1 half in total. Will be able to manage a bit more stitching to day hopefully after acupuncture.

I like tthe way you've rounded your corners, Agi -- is that by doing two backstitches diagonally there?

What a lovely needle case and the finishing is great, so neat, it will be a pleasure to use, something I could be doing with myself, I will have to put it on the list.
Is this the first UFO that has been finished since we started? Well done Agi. Do you have another UFO to finish?
Happy Stitching

progress of my BOINK

I had company and also had to work in the garden ( 2 acres) so I didn't get much stitching done. I am hoping to finish this by tomorrow.
