Update :dance: (and a bit more done --- and frogged... -- since this pic was taken). Only the scisors, the needle, and a bit of the top skein left to do!

I finished my "plain" version :dance: :dance: :dance: ! It's not been ironed yet, and I need to backstitch a rectangle around it because it's going to be whipstitched to the embellished version to make a double-sided hanger, but the main stitching is done:

I'll do a few other things now, and then start the embellished version -- buttons, charms, beads, Petite Treasure Braid, satin threads, pearl threads, variegated threads, couching, ribbon, I'll go mad :-). It does mean that this will be going for quite a bit longer, so if you didn't join at the start feel free to jump in now!

I did think of using a hand-dyed, to go with all the changes, but think I'll stick with the 32ct linen -- with so many changes I think it needs to have something the same so they look as though they belong together! Also, they'll be a lot easier to whipstitch together :-)

Has it really been this long since we had this stitch a long? :shock: I thought I'd let you all know that I got a great comment about mine. A guest peeked over my desk at my bag and said they thought it was really cool! I explained it had been part of a Stitch a Long section of this forum :wub: I might have gushed about great you all are a bit too :wink:
