Eeyore's body is finished except for the backstitching. I'm doing the background now which I love doing. It is one colour blue half stitch. I save that for when I don't want to pay attention to what I'm doing - like when Bones is on TV.

I'm also working on the dragon from the Stoney Creek booklet I had for Christmas. http://www.123stitch.com/cgi-perl/itemd ... em=01-2785

I am really enjoying this one as the colours are so pretty. I don't mind the Glissengloss Rainbow filament as it looks so good against the black. It does seem that there is more with blending filament than not though.

It is on 14ct black aida. The size is about 10x18 inches.

Here's a progress picture:

oops, that pink thread is just parked there looking silly.

Beautiful colours, great on black.
I will enjoy watching this one.

I can't wait to see the finished design, I might even have to look into that one myself

This is beautiful!!!!! I love the colors on the black fabric!!!

This is looking so pretty! I love the GlissenGloss, it's wonderful to work with.

This is gorgeous, especially on the black. You've made great progress so far. Looking forward to the next update!

This is wonderful! And I like the look of those two other patterns in the booklet too
Sadly the only two things I've done on black have gone VERY wrong so I think I'll steer clear and just watch your progress from afar
