Beautiful work! Such a nice pattern, and the navy does look good, even if your pic looks cobalt today. :)

:applesauce: Good progress for only working on it on the week-ends. It is really striking on the dark blue fabric.

Looking fabulous! So nice and crisp, (that's the word that came to mind when I was looking at it!) it's going to look lovely.

Ok.. so sort of getting my groove back on this one. I really really did not want to go back to work today because I didn't want to stop working on it.

I'm on the E and have noticed a few spots that should be a mirror image but aren't
She missed a few stitches. I'll try and scan my chart- easier than trying to explain it.
I'm also modifying the E just a bit. Shortening the end bits of the E.

Glad that you are making progress on yours Maggie. I did notice a couple of stitches that she missed on the O as well--so maddening when you see that after paying for a professional chart but those things happen. I'm about 2/3 of the way thru O will post a picture after this weekend's progress. Hopefully will be on the E by then.

I don't remember making changes in the O.. so either I did it and dont remember.. or I'll have to give it a good looksie

I'll post progress pics soon too. Almost done with the middle swirly bits and the top half of the border.

I'm really looking forward to your update--and looking forward to getting back to stitching mine on Saturday--must try to finish up the last bit of cross-stitching on my kingfishers tomorrow and then I'll be ready to do the backstitching on it next week :dance:
