Thanks! I'm so happy with how she's coming along. I feel like I'm in the home stretch with her as I'm so close to the bottom of the pattern. There's only 37 rows below the lowest point I've stitched so far... but the bottom is wider than anything else that's been stitched.

Thanks!

Sally, about 2/3 of the way done would be right. Not counting backstitch, which there is a rather lot of, but that will all go rather quickly, I think.

Worked on it until I physically couldn't anymore, which unfortunately wasn't all that long - about 2 hours. I'm having a bad pain day and my wrists are acting up, so I had to stop.

Image

There is nothing above the long line between the sleeves except for backstitch to do, so this is the last you'll see of that area until the main stitching is completed, as I'll be rolling it up on the scroll frame so I can work on the bottom.

Stitched for a few hours this morning. Still having pain/hand issues, so I haven't been able to have any long or uninterrupted stitching sessions. :( But hopefully I'll be able to soon.

Great update Brandi. I can sympathize with you not being able to stitch for long periods of time--I have that issue due to my neck and eyes as well--so I just stitch 20-30 mins at a time and then get up and do something else for a while :D
