I've missed this one! How unfortunate, as it's SO beautiful, and you're making such wonderful progress on it! The threads are lovely! I can't wait until you pick this one up again!
This is the result of my UFO week - sorry to post so late.

I arrived at this stage:
I am so happy, even if I had to frog quite a large bit...
Serinde, if I didn't fill in the blackwork as soon as a section is done, I would have never noticed that I was just one tiny stitch off... and it wouldn't have matched up at the end, of course.

Wow you were pretty busy this UFO week! It looks amazing! I can see the need to keep up with the backstitching. There's a lot going on in this design that it might be necessary to keep up with it.

WOW! This has really taken a great leap forward! I know exactly what you mean about discovering that sort of error, too. I obsessively counted and was ok. I really, really enjoyed doing the blackwork motives, even the roses, which I found difficult to count. This is so exciting!!
