Oh, it's really beautiful, so subtle colours! Can't wait to see some updates!
I have been working on my winter picture for two days, and there is not much left now, today all I was doing was putting away the threads: "I will not need any more green, nor white, nor this soft grey... only a bit of the wall is left and some backstitch. Should be done tomorrow. (Can't wait to start on my next poem-project, that gives me encouragement )

I've been working on my cat UFO for two days and it's frustrating! I don't feel like I'm making significant progress. I think it's because I'm doing it by color and not by 10x10 grid like I'm doing the wedding photo project, so I don't see measurable improvement every day.
But there's still 5 more days to the week so hopefully by the end of 7 days it'll seem like I did more.
This is a really neat idea! I'm a bit late for joining in this year but I think I might be coming on board with it next year. I've got a family tree design I've been putting away so often to start on something new. This will be a great way for me to stay motivated or risk having a red face at the end of a week!!
I was able to do an update for now....I'll be posting the pic now as I'll be busy again for the coming days and might not have anymore update progress to show....
From last Nov.UFO week update:
To this one now...

Thank you for putting my picture on the page. Next time I upload I will try and follow your instructions and see if I can do it myself. Unfortunately I am not the most technically gifted when it comes to this, but I will give it a go. So far I have managed three hours work on her, but I have gone and got the wretched cold my husband had last week and I am very slow at the moment, but I will continue with it until the 7th. I am hoping to complete the section I am working on.
Would just like to say I really like the work on the tiger and the four band seasons design great stitching. I'm really glad I found this forum. It might motivate me to complete some of the 95 items I have not completed. I know in a previous post I said I 50 well on New Years Day I spent the afternoon photographing all of my UFO's and there were in fact 95, which are all in my webshots album UFO's, some are very small others not so. Anyway I think I have found the place to get me onto turning some of them into completions this year.
Charmagne, your four seasons project is so beautiful!
Congrats to all the others who have had some progress already, can't wait to see pictures. :9

Four Seasons is really coming on great. I love the bright colors in that one Mayne.

I hope we can help get some of these finished.
I like the Pooh Pile too.
If you are looking for some one to help change you, look in the mirror
I love the progress of the 4 seasons! Lovely colors !
I also am a fan of Winnie the Pooh" and his friends! I have one that is waiting for me to stitch...maybe next month?

Great project Mayne, love the colours of the changing seasons. You always choose such charming designs.

I'd start by completing all the small things, get them done and out the way before tackling the bigger projects. UFO week was made for you!! Good luck!
