TB I love your first pieces the office sampler is fab a shame we can't things like this up in our office as it would be perfect for my workplace too!

The rose coasters are fab mum and I did them between us a few years ago and I remember we had the same issue with the white in the lilac until the green was added. I look forward to seeing the others take shape!

Thanks everyone. Nettie, which was your favourite?

Yes, they're no problem at all. I was a bit concerned about folding the aida over, but once the backs are on, it all fits neatly.

So due to alot going on at the weekend, I haven't been able to do anything on the yellow rose. Hopefully I should be able to get it finished this week though.

Only a small update:

Very bright and sort of happy to stitch.

Very cheerful -- I think this rose has ambitions to become a daffodil

These are so lovely, the yellow one has very cheerful shades. They'll make such a pretty set when they're all done.

Thanks everyone!

Here's the next update:

Wasn't too sure about the darker browny yellow, but I think it adds a bit of definition to the whole thing, or it would be too light to make any real shape etc out. So once the greens are in, again, I think it'll help and look fine.

Well ... that's what I hope!
