I really admire this and look forward to seeing it complete and made up, are you framing it or do you have other plans for it?

:applesauce: So beautiful. This one has been amazing to watch progress. And I agree that if you don't make you April finish goal, that just means you get to work on it a bit longer and we get to see more lovely pictures. :applesauce:

It will be framed, though I doubt my bank balance will like it much! I knew that when I started it there would be no point in stitching it only to have it languishing in a drawer somewhere. With Chatelaines as well as the cost of materials I think you have to take into account the cost of the framing too! I have another that I have already started (only stitched on for 5 days at the start of the year) and another 3 in the "planning" stages - so I guess I should start a framing fund along with my stash allowance @rotfl:!

Another week's stitching on CGM:

Just the 3 phoenix and beading to go - so glad I do not have to stitch another vase or more bamboo! I may stitch a little bit on Bookend Kitties for a few days now that page 2 is out before I tackle the phoenix.......

It's looking gorgeous. I'm sure you'll find Bookend Kitties quite relaxing after working on this one! I agree with you about the framing fund. I was considering starting one up for my New York project, due to it's size!
