I have finished the third page of my Waterlily design. This is stitching up really quickly as there are large blocks of colours. It is nice to sew this one after the HAED because the colours are so bright and cheerful in comparison. I also have a new toy: a froggy tape measure which is sooooo cute. The next time I stitch this one it will be the last and I can't wait to see it completed:

:applesauce: I love the wizard and I admire your sticking to your rotation. I'm not sure that I have the discipline for that. I am looking forward to the backstitch and bling you mentioned that will show up in the next wizard update.

I love the way his cloak looks really "windy" (bad way of putting it but I hope you know what i mean)

I have finished the next page of my large dolphin design. It is really a fun stitch and i love all the blues plus on this page a large dolphin is starting to come through so I was really excited to stitch it. the pages on this piece stitch up really fast. this only took a week of solid stitching to complete. Now I am moving back onto my fractal bookmark. I really enjoy working on my rotation and am pleased I am sticking to it. It makes larger or more intricate pieces seem less daunting and achievable. i am off now to look at everybody else's progress. Happy Stitching Everybody!! :D

The page I was working on:

And both pages together:
