Midge's version of TW's Peacock Tapestry - Update 11/10/17!

Since this year is my year of the UFO, I dug out this one and decided to give it another go. It is full of blended threads and I have now remembered why I packed in last time but I have managed quite a bit of work on it and as you will see, there is some of the peacock starting to appear.
Where I picked up :-
And where I have got to :-
It is consigned back to the drawer as the next part of Castles in the Air is due out any day and I really want to stay on course with that.

Blended threads... been awhile since I've done them... They can be a headache, but so beautiful at the same time... Hopefully this won't stay in the drawer for too long

You've made great progress already Midge, considering all the blended threads. It's going to be really beautiful and I think once you get a good portion done and are working on the peacock, you'll just want to keep going to see the fininshed result!
I'm going to watch this one, it's gorgeous!

That's a very pretty design Midge, which I also have, but the backstitches stopped me from starting this one.
I've left a comment on your blogpost on this, but for some reason, I cannot find it anymore.
Anyway, I can't wait to see your finish on this Midge

Bloomin' 'ek! Didn't realise it had been 5 1/2 years since I last worked on this one. How time flies!
Just dug it out of my cupboard ready for UFO week starting.
I'll post a pic in a little while.
