It looks wonderful so far - and its going to be incredible! It can be a bit overwhelming with big projects - I've just started my first biggie.

I've been here - once me and some friends drove up from London to Aberdeen, and we stopped here to visit! Its a wonderful place, if a bit hairy getting to and from it!

This piece is going from strength to strength. You are doing a wonderful job. Big projects can be daunting, and interspersing work on this with smaller things is just the ticket. But what a result! :applesauce: :applesauce:

I think it's looking great! :dance: I get that way too about bigger projects. It helps to have something small and easy build up your endurance for the long haul of a stitch. But it will be worth it in the end :wink:

A new update on this project - I've finished 3 pages since the last update. I'm excited to see this really coming together :) I don't think I am going to have it done to give it to my mom for Christmas, though, so it will have to be her birthday present for next year.

I started work on page 12 last night and there are SO MANY confetti stitches! I am going to try the parking method to see if that helps. So far it seems to be going well, but I have only completed a couple of rows that way so far.

Here is a snapshot of the area I just completed:

And here is the whole thing:

Oh Kim, it is beautiful.
We all hate confetti but it is sooooo worth it in the end.
