I'm a little late, but yesterday at work I was clearing out my cabinet where Snow White (remember her??!!) had been living since November! Brought her home to have another go on. I wasn't as disciplined a stitcher then as I am now and there are loads of missed confetti stitches all over the place! I set about filling in all the ones on Page 1 at least - there were 69 and got 42 of them done last night - doesn't sound like much, but just about every single one was a different colour! So not enough progress to post a picture, but I will do more next month
Was weird to be working in full crosses again and the 16ct seemed enormous, felt like I should be holding it further away from me!!

I'm so glad I joined in. I've almost finished my Peacock and then I've got the little tile to do. I'm on holiday the first week of August but I shall be going on long term leave a couple of weeks later, so plenty of time for stitching then.
I have 3 projects on the go.. but not UFO's exactly as I do work on them in rotation, BUT I have all these rolled up in tubes.. does it count if I make a pledge on this thread to do something with them..........
My BOINK is finished......I just came home from camping. I stitched in the late afternoon before it became too dark to stitch. I have a travel magnifer so that helps. I will post a photo as soon as I get it out of the RV.
Jilly your bed is fabulous, I lov your Native American and Ja[anese kits especially, gues what? We are the same age, same taste in kits, I am Central Scotland and I could probably make a bed just like yours, king size of course! Just don't tell my other half! I am going to have to join in too.
Happy Stitching

Excellent taste... and a vintage year don't you think
You will probably like 'Billy' Glen... another Native American project, I must do a bit more on him I think his SAL thread has long since been lost
I am so bad at carefully rolling my projects up and storing them away they deserve so much more.......
Jilly you must do something with all that fabulous work! I have to say my heart sank a little when I saw your picture as I know that the same is going to happen to all my work when it is finished as my new house won't have the wall space for it all!!
I'm working on some of the dreaded backstitch - which isn't as bad as I anticipated - because I am absolutely hating the nasty little fractionals in the lower border. I've got so little left to do that I want to get it finished but the fractionals
I'm going to finish the backstitch and then do one horrible flower a day until it's done. More pix soon.
