Thanks, Tracy and Mabel.

The wildflowers are absolutely woderful. I hope you'll enjoy stitching more now.

Oooh those reds (dark pinks?) are gorgeous!

Oh good. I love this one.

I'm really glad you've got this one back out, I really like it alot!

It doesn't feel as if I've made much progress on this over the past week during my lunchtimes (although I got over an hour and a half to stitch on it yesterday when I ran out of work - funny how you can have 3 jobs all needed at the same time and then nothing!) and I also took it to the stitching group I go to Thursday nights so I think that when I look at the photos side by side progress has been made...

Before:


Now:

That looks beautiful on black - such bright colors, and they stand out so well!

Oh yeah that is alot of progress and it looks great on that black!!!!!

I love the vibrancy and pretty design - lovely work!

great very pretty colours!

lovely colours

definite progress !

perhaps you've mentioned this before, but what is your gridding done with? Is it light thread or a pen/pencil of some sort?

I'm so glad to see this one again. I love it.

The gridding on this one is done with a sewline pencil (similar to a pacer where you can put in coloured leads).

So I didn't post a pic last Friday as I hadn't had a lot of time to stitch on Wildflowers so this pic covers a fortnight's worth of progress:

And just to show how far I'm through the whole project:
