Not bad for a 'consolation' prize!

Got to work on the HAED Mini Curl Up With A Good Book:

It was fun to start stitching the navy on the right side after all of the confetti!

Last week I worked on the Chatelaine Raffle consolation prize while on vacation:

I've gotten all of the cross-stitches done, and am starting the specialty stitches.

Thanks for looking!!!

They are both lovely. You did great with the confetti and the amount of threads you have parked shows how much there is. Great update.

And your Chat is beautiful.

I can't wait to see the next update on it with the specialty stitches.

I found the picture of your Curl up - you're doing the full pattern! That is so cool!!!

It will be fun to see the differences between the mini and full size pattern.

Both are coming along very well and its great to see them, especially your Chatelaine one. How are you finding the specialty stitches?
Love the fabric you have for it too.

I finished the first page of HAED Fireside Fairytales by Randal Spangler:

It's stitched on 20 ct Mushroom Lugana.

I've decided to change my WIP rotation. I was changing what WIP I stitched every Friday morning, but I'm amazed at how quickly the Fireside Fairytales BAP first page stitched up. It only took me two weeks! I am now less afraid of BAPs.

It was so much fun to actually finish a page, and I really enjoyed stitching this BAP, so I plan to stitch one page of it, then rotate to another WIP and finish a page/part, then come back to this BAP.

very nice!! Congrats on finishing page 1

congrats on finishing page 1. You have done a beautiful job of stitching. This is such an amazing design, I can't wait for more updates. And good hearing that you enjoyed working on a BAP.
