Thanks everyone! Yes it was nice to stitch a little blue and get away from some of those purples. I think there is about 8 or 9 different purples in this page alone. The next page I am going to start (probably this weekend) is a lot of the same colors so it should go fairly quickly. :)

okay here's the next update. Page 1 is complete except for a few stitches near the bottom of the page. This is about 5,400 stitches done out of 90,300. I'm gonna start on page 2 this weekend.

Thanks everyone! I had a bad stomach bug this past weekend and didn't get any stitching in but I was checking out page 2 and it looks like I get to stitch chessie's ears! YAY! Some bright blues will be a nice change from all that purple :)

The purples look gorgeous. Finishing a page on any HAED is excellent (especially because you've been stitching so quickly!). :applesauce:
I can't wait until you get to the electric blue of the cat, it's going to be amazing. I'm pretty excited. :wub: Though it's probably a way off, I am prepared to wait.
Looking forward to your next update!
