He is majestic. The subtle change of colour from darkish red/cerise to the purple of his robe is beautiful and I the peacock's tail feathers.

This piece is so gorgeous! I thought it was impressive before but I love it even more now with the peacock and the dragonflies! I went back through the thread and saw that it's taken you about five months, I feel like something like this would take me three years! I hope to be able to stitch as fast and as beautifully someday!!

Next up is "Hardanger Christmas House". Hopefully, I can get this one done in time for this Christmas. I've no idea if that's possible as I haven't done any Hardanger before! I always jump in at the deep end with something new! wish me luck!
This is the "yummy" stash that I'll be using!
36 count Antique White Edinburgh linen for the interior, 25 count Cream Dublin Linen for the exterior.

The Samurai is just gorgeous. You have done an amazing job. I can't wait to see the next one. WOW. It will be beautiful. I ordered a book that Mabel recommended for hardanger stitching and am eager to start also. I am going to follow your progress on the house with lots of interest.

He is super fantastic!!!!!!
I have looked at the Hardanger project you are going to try but since it involves cutting I won't do it. I look forward to seeing what it looks like as you progress.
