Wow, you've worked a lot on this! I bet this stitch is getting more interesting now that you've come to the smaller details! :applesauce:

Wow! I am amazed! You've done quite a bit since the last update! How are you feeling about the design now? Is it looking less washed out now that some of the focal points are being stitched?

great stitching Lizzy. The foreground you have stitched is showing up the background to great effect already. I think I said it before..but this is a lovely design :)

I keep thinking the faster I stitch the sooner it will be done :lol:

I still think its washed out but its not bad to stitch and from a safe distance it looks ok. Everytime I pick it up though I have a battle with myself trying to decide whether or not to finish it :? and I keep looking at other designers patterns and wondering why mines all green and theres aren't. I'll do a bit more and see how I feel before I give up. Thanks for your lovely comments everyone :)

It's such a pity that you sill feel that way about your project. :( It is stunning and coming along so beautifully. I know what it's like to be working on something you're not really enjoying - it feels like a chore, not a pleasure to do.

I really hope you decide to carry on as it is already stunning looking and there is so much more detail yet to come!!
