Love your scroll frame and I'm very impressed by how neat your stitching is on the back. Mine looks nothing like that :wink:

I love the two new patterns you've got too. Look forward to seeing those get stitched.

Oookay not much has been done I have been putting this off and I really need to grit and bear through it. I am almost finished with the flowers on top just a little section I need to do on the far left flower. I added a little skin as well that is why there is the one fly away strand it is where I am working right now. I also have been obsessed with the song "popular" from Wicked... No I have not seen it yet, but I want to.

Fantastic work Brandon! I've read "Wicked", but haven't been to see the show, the music is great.

Thank you everyone I have finally finished the flowers on top and that means no more blue yay!!! Now I am working on the skin right now.

Is the book good? I want to read the book before seeing the performance.

I have also been watching very extensively the Casey Anthony case and was very happy with the prosecutions expert witness today Dr. Jan Garvaglia. She definitely made it very clear with actual commen sense of what happened to Caylee Anthony's (the daughter) death being a homicide and what "red flags" that supported her findings. I hope she gets convicted and gets the death penalty..... If you have not noticed by my last statement yes I am all for the death penalty... I actually wanted to be a lawyer and be a prosecution lawyer for that reason so I took a couple of forensic courses... hahaha, yea I am a dancer now which is far far from having to look at horrible crime scene photos but I have traded that with many people who are not so educated...there are some that are very smart and intelligent but the many I have been around... uhh noooo... not the case, haha.

Positive note I will have an update for you guys and again thank you guys very much, very encouraging.

I enjoyed it quite a bit. I've read a few others he wrote, some I liked, and some I didn't, but this one was definitely worth reading.

Quick update for everyone. You can see the face starting to take shape.

I have been to bookstores online looking at the book wicked. I feel this month I have been very random and have been all over the place. I even got a pedicure today and that was pretty amazing. My dancer feet are really happy but the callus that I have been working very hard to get is all GONE... NOOOoooooo.

Beautifully stitched!

I read Wicked too, and I although I really enjoyed some parts, I was mildly to moderately bored at some others. It's a good book but not for everyone, that's for sure.

I agree. Did you try the sequel? I couldn't get through it.

Brandon: Sorry to hear about losing the callus, but pedicures are fun. Great progress!
