So I got page 1 of my QS finished on the weekend, just in time for the second page to appear in my inbox this morning so I can take it on the plane for my day trip to Canberra.

So for my daytime stitching this week I did a little bit more on my Chatelaine (got started on the first of 5 metallics in this part!)

These both look amazing. The stitches in the Chatelaine look wonderful, it's so pretty.

I got over 700 stitches done while flying to Canberra and back, of the 1175 stitches of 939 and 823 that are across the top of p2. Of course I've done a bit more since then as the photo shows, and the page is going quicker as there large blocks of one colour:

This is really coming on great! It's wonderful to get those blocks of colours as a rest from confetti, but funny how you then long for confetti again as a change, then the blocks again and so on.... :lol:

Looking great anyhow.
