Thanks for all the nice comments, they really help with the motivation! :D

I like the idea of writing the date of your latest update in the title as well, that should help keep it in my head of how long it was I last updated! :lol:


Ok, so keeping in mind I haven't had alot of stitchy time this week, this is where you last saw it:

and this is where I am now:

Excuse the blurry pic, I can't get the camera set right for this. :roll: Where's hubby when I need him?


If I had more time, I'd whiz along with this, I'm so enjoying it, but like we all find, it's time that holds us back. :x

Thank you!

Mags, yes am pleased with it. It was strange because I wasn't. I was using some strange colours and thinking it no longer looked right etc. But I left it stood upright on the spare bed and next time I walked into that room I was viewing it from a distance and having been away from it for awhile as well, well I think those things just gave me a different view of it all and I suddenly saw it looking 'right', everything that looked strange now seemed to have blended in together and I was really happy with it all.
:D


I probably sound really strange now. :oops:

Not strange at all. I think you do have to stand back occasionally as when you are working on something so close it can sometimes look a bit odd. It looks brilliant from where I am standing (well sitting :lol: )
