You are making good progress on this lovely chart and it has such gorgeous vibrant colours too. Love the fabric it goes well with that theme.

Sorry to know you have been ill and hope it is all behind you now as is that rushed and drastic move. Good on you for keeping on stitching when you could

Thank you everyone and I am feeling better just getting over the last hurdle of it.

Lady S: Thank you and I am following you as well. Still figuring it out.

Susan F: You should start one or at get all the fixings for one :D.

Rcperrys: IT was not easy at alll. I just would do about 5 mins. or just a little area. What kept me going was every single stitch counts and that is one more stitch closer to finishing.

Again Thank you everyone it's great to come here and have the sense of community and family and talk about stitchy stuff. :D.

Awesome start so far! I am thinking of making this my next project but I promised myself I would not start any more new ones until I have finished a few hehe...

I just love the colors in this pattern though! Keep up the good work :) . And a little tip that I found useful when doing the Emerald Mermaid was for the small areas just stitch and don't worry about finishing them off until there is a bigger area for finishing...It makes everything seem to fly by faster when you aren't dealing with finishing off threads all the time with color changes for small areas!

So pretty!

The finished picture makes them look so sleek and gorgeous. I think the designer really captured the essence of them!

I wasn't able to stitch at all only on Monday for a 3 hours and wanted to do an update for y'all. I have had a lot of free time this week to do some stitching so there will be more done.
