So glad that you are stitching this again I have missed it so much that I was going to resurrect the thread but did not want to pressurise you.

Well done it is gorgeous.

It's absolutely lovely, don't mind those confetti stitches so much, they make the piece alive!

Wonderful to see this again!

It's great to see this one again, well done for all that confetti, it definitely makes it look worth it. With mine I've become an expert at the length of thread needed to do just one stitch! as I'm keeping strictly to finishing off a page at a time.
Is that another little balloon or a bunch of them in between the colourful one and the outline of the next one?

You're getting on great with this now! At least you have finished the balloon with the worst of the confetti stitches. Looking forward to seeing the others starting to appear.

This is really a great project sorry for the confetti issue but just think of how great it is going to look finished.

It's looking fantastic.
Don't give up on the balloons, it will be worth every confetti at the end.

Yeah, that's a small group of balloons. I did a few confetti stitches there after I had finished the bigger balloon but then I got tired of the single stitches and went back to the background colors.

I don't think the other balloons will be as bad since they are larger with fewer colors to stitch. That should make large blocks of colors in the same place (except for those small balloon clusters. Here's what it's suppose to look like again so you can see how the other balloons are going to be different.

It's looking great!!! Good to see this one in the rotation again.
