It certainly is gonna be HUGE!!!! You've made a great start - that first 'strip' is so satisfying isn't it??

Just bumping this up as I have finally started stitching again. I had visions of coming home from hospital after the chemo and sitting sewing all day for the two weeks between treatment cycles BUT it hasn't worked out like that as I haven't felt well enough to sit up and stitch until the last couple of days.
I have done a bit more since I last took a photo so will go downstairs and take a picture now to show you all later!

Sorry to hear you've been feeling so badly ; I'm happy for you that you are starting to feel a bit better.

[Nachstenliebe]

The good thing about stitching is it's always there waiting patiently when you're able to get back to it... Do you know how many bouts of chemo you'll need?

hope you are soon able to stitch more. I really hope that the chemo treatments will do what they need to and will become easier for you to go thru. Sending loads of hugs your way

[Rose]

I am sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. I know that is a part of the treatment as many friends have told me how terrible they feel afterwards. Be sure to rest and get yourself better and we will wait for any updates you can give us.

[Lizzieh]

ok so here is the promised picture.


Confetti heaven!!!!

I am hopefully only having two cycles of chemo so the next should be my last. Then it is surgery. A very big operation which I have been told will take several months to recover from plus mean a whole new way of eating. As long as I can still stitch...

[karen4bells]

Beautiful!! Very pretty!!
Hoping that the next round of chemo won't be quite as bad and that the upcoming surgery will be most successful

[pamelam]

Your stitching is beautiful, Liz!
Hoping everything goes better for you during the next round of chemo.

[Jamielea]

A fabulous piece you are stitching, complex too! Nice colours tho.

Sorry to learn of your health difficulties. Best wishes for successful treatment.

[Rose]

Wow that is gorgeous and yes Confetti heavy.

[Mabel Figworthy]

that is a LOT of confetti!

Glad you feel up to stitching again, and I hope the operation will go well and recovery will be smooth!

[vanessanjf]

Fantastic work. You must have a lot of patience for all that confetti!

[Pengwenn]

It looks beautiful and I wish you a fast, healthy and stitched filled recovery.

[Imme]

Great work on the cross stitch. Hope all of your treatments go well and wish you a speedy recovery.

I have a dilemma that I hope you lovely people will help me with.
This large HAED was what I was working on when I first was diagnosed a year ago. I was doing it as a model for Colray Crafts and still have a long way to go although I have already done quite a lt of pages. Carole from Colray has been lovely and says if I can't finish it not to worry, or I can keep it for myself for something to do or I can finish it and send it back.
When I first came out of hospital I couldn't do it but now I probably could. I don't want the pressure of doing it as a model to send back, but if I were going to stitch it for myself I would rather be doing something more to my taste.
So what do I do with it. I hate having it hanging around coz I feel I ought to be stitching it but I can't bring myself to throw it away..,..any suggestions?
