This is a lovely project! One of the nice things about stitching it, I should think, is that it is a series of small projects wrapped up into one, so you never have chance to get tired of any of it. I'd love to see the whole thing...

Lovely stitching and I'm with Fljotsdale I would love to see the whole thing so far.

Hmm...yes, there is that feeling since the flowers are all so different. The thing that makes me tired is the relentless heat we've had here! I keep my thermostat a little high trying to save on electricity and I have a lamp practically in my face and it's just HOT!!!

So I've finished the crosses on the Rose; all I have left is the back stitching! Yay! I'll finish this one tomorrow and post where I am overall.

It's gorgeous!! The best one yet--can't wait to see the overall effect! Hope that your weather cools down soon for you

Such a gorgeous colour flower I love it

Very pretty! I love the colors in this flower.

Wow the flower looks great, you almost don't need any BS!!!!!

All the flowers look great! I am envious.... I am so intimadated by afgans! You are starting to give me the courage to finish the one my mom gave that she had 3/4ths of the way completed

You're doing such lovely work on the afghan!

Thank you one and all!

Here's the finished Rose Gallica:



And here is the whole thing so far:



It's hard to keep my mojo going right now. It's been over a month since the car accident and I still haven't been reimbursed for the car or anything. I've been getting seriously frustrated with going around in circles with insurance companies and lawyers.

Anyway! next up is a magnolia blossom.

Like Fljotsdale says, it's like a series of smaller projects. I'm way more intimidated by HAEDs! I actually did my first afghan more than 20 years ago for my mom. It was a pretty easy design from Leisure Arts done on Anne cloth, which I like much better than this Angelica!

It's breathtakingly beautiful!! Wow, I'm sooooooooooooo loving this!
I do hope you get some results soon from your insurance--sending a few hugs your way

Looking sooo good, and you are making great progress. Love the Rose, it is my favourite so far

soooooo pretty

I'm enjoying watching this. It's looking lovely. Hope your mojo comes back soon.

This is looking beautiful! Well done and keep going!

Lovely work

Very pretty!

Cars and insurance companies... add that with lawyers and you have one of the greatest recipes for a headache! Good luck with all of that....
The backstitching made this pretty flower really blossom
