A bit more stitched last night... I had to get out my big camera for pics on this one. It still isn't right on for the colors but it's closer. At least you can see that there are three different colors so far. Tonight will work in some specialty stitches!

Is it wrong of me to hope my son's baseball game gets rained out tonight so I can stitch longer? I'm so obsessed with this one right now, I want to call in sick and stitch all day, lol

Oh, and Carole, the purple is ever so slightly variegated...

Dana, it is very understandable why you might be wishing for a rainout today. If it doesn't thought, I hope that ya'll win the game. My poor grandson was very nice to think I hadn't been a curse, since they did very well this year, except when I went to a game. Fortunately for him, I didn't make that many this year.

I LOVE the colors on this one and can't wait to see the specialty stitches. It is just beautiful.

and you've only gotten started.

I really love the Chatelaines that I have seen on this site but I particularly like this one having a dark background. You have made a fabulous start with it and I am looking forward to seeing it grow

Oh this is a gorgeous one!!!!! So funny the 3 different colors that the fabric has come out.....

In-laws were from Oregon and they always said people in Oregon don't tan they rust.....

Washington state as well.

Thank you everyone! My wish came true and the game has been rained out.

We have two seasons here - Winter and August...

This just gets prettier and prettier with each update. I'm going to run out of adjectives pretty quickly if you keep this up.

In Chicago we used to say we also had two seasons. Winter and road repair

I hope you are going to post lots of updates on this. I love watching it grow.

Parksfarm · Post by **Parksfarm** » Wed May 23, 2012 5:20 pm

Ok, promise this is the last pic until I'm done with Part 1 - I'm not going to keep posting every day, lol. I'm just enjoying this one so much!

BookNerd · Post by **BookNerd** » Wed May 23, 2012 5:29 pm

It is coming along so beautifully!!

rcperryls · Post by **rcperryls** » Wed May 23, 2012 5:40 pm

Beautiful. Don't stop posting if its because you don't think we want to see it. I think a post every day you work on it would be just fine with me. I love the colors in this one and you are doing an awesome job.
