very elegant foliage!

I love the colouring of all of these.

Very pretty, well done

This is really beautiful

Looking good! I can imagine with getting quite toasty with that on your lap! Would be really good in the winter though

This is really coming together fast! It looks great!

This is coming on so well and looking beautiful

Thank you, thank you everyone! You are too kind!

Just finished this square this evening. I thought I'd never get all the back-stitching done! But I think this may well end up one of my favorite squares once it's all done.



I can't seem to stitch in total silence, and since I work at my computer desk, I "listen" to movies on Netflix or on dvd that I've seen enough times, I don't have to watch them anymore. The other day, I had "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" on and I found that I really like stitching to bluegrass music!

After I take a couple of days to get caught up on house and yard chores, it will be on to the Lilacs square. Lots of lavendars and purples, so I'm reallu looking forward to it!

Oh wow this came out so gorgeous!!!!!

very pretty!! I am like that when I stitch too, either listen to tv or my tunes on my mp3 player--which has nearly 2000 songs on it, which vary from Shania Twain to Carrie Underwood to Mariah Carey to Michael Buble to 60's music to Michael Jackson and so on and so forth

So pretty with those lovely shades of pink!

Wow, this is gorgeous. The pinks are lovely. Looking forward to the lilacs.

I like to stitch to movies too - I have a vast collection of DVDs, most of which I've seen a lot of times so I can just listen to them as I stitch.

Like an audio book with pictures ?

It's lovely!

That square is so beautiful!!

It's lovely and I think it's progressing very well.

I really loved the magazine this series was in back when it was still published. They had beautiful designs, especially for Christmas. The only problem is that their patterns were a nightmare to read! I'd be a little farther along on the lilacs, but I miscounted a couple of times and had to do a little frogging. I finally broke out a highlighter to keep track of where I am!
About 2/3rds through this square.


There is very pale purple on the lower flower that is difficult to see even with it in my hands! It does have a "lacy" look though , doesn't it? And the best part of this one? No backstitching!

The lilacs are coming along very nicely!! just love them!

Oh that is gorgeous!!!!
