This is the project I work on a few days a week during my lunch hour (time permitting).

Dimensions Gold - Enchanted Cottage

I will try to update the photos monthly (at least) - there is very little progress day to day.

Sorry for the poor quality photo here - looks like a bit of a shadow at the bottom and a bit blurred.

It's lovely, I normally have a 'work' project for lunch times I find it relaxing.

I stitch in my lunch hour too! I think my colleagues have got used to me being slightly odd that way, though my boss did query why I didn't go outside for lunch. He looked a bit bemused when I told him that the office light was great for stitching As I work in hand though, I just take my current project with me - it's now quite well travelled....

Jen - your one is looking great. What's the finished picture going to be?

This looks lovely, Jen. Wish I could still stitch in my lunch break, but I only get half an hour and by the time I've actually eaten my lunch, I only have about 15 minutes, although I did manage to stitch a birthday card in my breaks once. My colleagues thought I was a bit odd!

I like this one, will be good to see your progress!

I might go back to stitching before work/at lunchtime again - I agree the lights in the office are good for stitching!

This looks like it's a lovely design. Looking forward to the updates

Oh great progress on this one! I really like it!

I keep thinking about bringing my stitching to do on a lunch break but most the time I don't even take a lunch break and lately if I do take one, I've been going for a walk...but stitching would be so much better!!!

I stitch on my breaks and at lunch while at work. Sometimes it's a little project, sometimes a big one. Right now I'm taking my balloons with me. After I assemble the scroll frame setup when I'm done I just put it on the floor behind me. I get people coming by just to see what I'm working on and how far I've come.

I love what you've done so far. Keep it up and try to post updated pics more than once a month please!

You have made a great start on this already *hopes to see more than just monthly updates*

Great progress

Thanks everyone - and you guys have captioned what people think of me stitching in the office - 'Odd'.

Here is a picture of the finished design.

I love the design! Great progress on it, too! I also bring a mini project and work on it before office hours...I usually come early for work.

I'd rather be odd than normal, especially when it results in great pictures for the home

That's a lovely project - look forward to seeing more updates.

It is a lovely picture. I love the Dimension Gold designs especially cottages and landscapes.

Ooooh it's sooo quiant and pretty!

This is starting to look so preety. Love to see it finished

This is lovely and your progress is great! Well done.
I'm sure rather than seeing you as 'odd' your workmates are probably quite impressed.
