This pattern is from Alessandra Adelaide Needleworks
I am working it on 28 ct Linen with Belle Soie overdyed thread in Lasagna
I have never worked on a solid color design before and I am flying through it. Stitching in all one color is so much faster. This design is all full crosses.. no half or 3/4 stitches.
This was after about a week of stitching
And this is after vacation. I stitched during my 3 hour flight and while waiting for our plane. I wasn't sure if I would get needles through security but I made it through both times.

Very pretty!
I'm glad you were able to take it on a plane with you.. I'd go mad if I had to sit still for hours and couldn't stitch
