Great progress!! I'm really enjoying the clock fractal SALs. All that confetti will be worth it in the end.

I remember seeing this one last year... wonderful progress - it's looking fantastic!
I don't know which would be worse... stitching all that white or stitching a ton of black. On one hand you're suffering snow blindness from the reflected light, on the other hand you're straining trying to see into a black hole!
Hope to see more of your updates soon!

Fantastic progress. Well done!

Your update is great! I don't know if I could stitch all that white and black, your much braver than me hun! Look forward to your next update piccie

I've just caught up with this thread....it's absolutely fantastic. I wish I had the patience to try one so large. Keep going at it and I look forward to seeing the end result.

Such a beautiful design, and you're doing a terrific job with it.

on getting the first row complete (I totally understand about the last page )

Awesome! I love it

Yay! Nice to see where you're at on this one as well. I was wondering. Good for you to finish that large section of all one colour. I haven't done that in so long I imagine I'd be mortally bored as well. We'll see since I think some upcoming WIPs need that kind of attention. Probably why they're turning into UFOs.

Looks wonderful!

The last 2 pages ended up taking me longer than I thought - lots of confetti. I'm going to keep pushing through tho'. If I keep going, I may finish with enough time to get it framed and enter into our county fair this year. I had a nice experience last year (honestly think the piece I entered last year was nicer than this - but, I think people might find this to be interesting to look at).

Inspired by Carole's photo ham Laverne, my Rusty decided he needed to 'help' with my cross stitching last week.



.....and then I had both kitties 'helping' this morning - Booter has the white on him - they were trying to see who culd get closer to my face...Booter is on my lap and Rusty climbed over him and is perched on my chest...Nice!.....needless to say - they won and I was not able to stitch 'til they were done with my lap.



And finally, the latest update....only 3 more 'rows' to go.

Awesome update! You have really made wonderful progress on this! Your cats are gorgeous!

Great update on this one and just love Rusty and Booster. Of course they have to get in the picture.

great update on this one. I think it is one of the most interesting projects.
Not surprised that your kitties are helping. They are adorable. Too bad they slowed down the stitching. I could not stitch with two in my lap ( or one on my chest and one in my lap or take a photo either I think ).

Fantastic work!!!!! Love the design!

It looks awesome!!!!!

Very, very cool! My DH just saw it and thinks you should turn it into an actual clock. Glad you were able to get through the confetti and the kitties!

Great update! I really admire your patience and perseverence with this - it would have driven me crackers!

Your little helpers are beautiful!
