That's not far off, Kerri, I think I'm at about 19,000. I'm slowing down a bit now though with having to go to work again :(

Wow good job Sarah! You are just flying through this! I know what you mean about having to go to work. I work 10 hours a day and most days I don't get to even stitch at night. Thank goodness for the weekends! Regardless, I still think you are going to fly through this and then you can start your next HAED! :D

How beautiful! Your stitches always look so even... Can't wait to see more!

BTW, what color is the Lugana you're using?

It's just plain white Lugana, Amanda. It was cheapest, :lol: Also I thought it would give me the best chance of seeing the holes!

Its looking amazing :D. It must be exciting getting to a more detailed page. It looks wonderful stitched, even better than I was expecting given the picture. You're making such fast progress!

Yum, applesauce! :lol: Unfortunately progress won't be as quick now - I did the first two pages of this in a week when I was off work and the third page has taken me a week on its own. I'm going to try and devote Sundays to Simon's Chinese Dragon from now on as well, or I'll never get it done.

Still, I've done about 23,500 stitches on this now - only another 352,000 to go, hehe!

:applesauce: :applesauce: 23,5000 already :shock: Even if you slow down to one page a week, you will still be making amazing progress on this! I bet you are glad to get to some more interesting parts of the pattern now! I can't wait for the next update!

I can't wait to get my hands on it again when I get home, Kerri! More than two thirds of the next page is of the telescope, so lots of nice greens to work with! I'll work on it tonight and on Saturday and then post an update and then make myself put it away during the day on Sunday and do the dragon. I can't do that at night, the chart is horrible and hard to read in artificial light.
