Thank you. There's five more crosses need putting into that lantern, but I'm working on the backstitch until I com to them as they're right in the top corner and it means starting a new length of thread.
I love how the backstitch seems to pull everything together and make something out of the confetti.

Is that what it is? I've been calling it grapes, even though I know it's not grapes

It's one of my favourite shrubs, Angel, so I'd recognise it anywhere

. In Dutch it is known as "blue rain" (laburnum is known as "golden rain") and I once tried to grow one from a seed, but although it had leaves it never produced flowers.

It's a beautiful flower. I googled it. Thank you for letting me know what it was ^_^ It's a shame yours didn't flower.
