It's looking beautiful, so glad you're persevering with it in spite of annoying white on white!

YAY! My dad just brought lightbulbs round! I can see to stitch properly again!!!

yipeeeeeeee !!

And back to work on this, although I must confess to not really having my heart in it today. I think my stitchy bug has gotten himself lost I spent a whole day finding things to do around the house when I could have stitched uninterupted! Seriously! But I eventually forced myself when Chris said I can't start my HAED until I finish this I'm NEVER going to get it done!

So I spent the evening working on very light grey and I'm not sure if you can see it at all, but here's my progress:

Hang in there Angel. Your steadfastness to get this project done has inspired me to work thru my project even when i don't feel like it. This piece is GORGEOUS!!!!!

Msgoodhands

angel, i know the feeling, but it's too gorgeous to leave it undone, haven't done any of mine for a couple of nights either and got withdrawals now I've seen yours again.

wish I could have brought it to work today as bored silly

brilliant progress!!! Wish Paul would say things like that to me, I've got soo many unfinished things started

Clever Chris , that's a very good incentive!

Fab progress, this is really coming on Angel.

I'm glad to hear it Msgoodhands ^_^ I'm always glad to be able to inspire someone ^_^ I'm glad you like the project.

This is very true gyork, especially when I've already got it's home on the wall planned. I will finish it, it won't be another UFO. It's a shame you couldn't take yours to work. Maybe keep a small one in your bag for such emergencies?

hehe, yes, Chris is a sweetheart and a darling! He knows just what to say to motivate me ^_^

wish I could don't think the council bosses would like that though, might put it in the suggestion box for 'healthy working lives'

Good to keep yourself going even if you don't feel up to stitching! If I think of all I have to get done this year sometimes I just play games on Facebook instead!

bad boss

I know what you mean

yep horrid !

Back to the grind stone I'm determined to finish this lantern shortly, and hopefully get some backstitch in too.

This is so pretty! About how much more do you have to go on it?

It's looking so great Angel!

A fair bit. I'm thankfully almost done with the top half, but I've barely touched the bottom half...would you like to see it unscrolled?

Of course!
