WIP Updates

I thought it was time I posted some piccies of my WIPs. With it being half term we've been busy so I haven't had chance but thought I'd make time now!

So here's my progress on Chatelaine Summer Afternoon. It's stitched on 28 count antique white evenweave using DMC, Caron Waterlilies, Rainbow Gallery Petite Braid and Mill Hill beads. This is pages 1 and 2 and I just love it! It is so incredibly pretty. I was going to carry on with it this week but seen as I'd got two pages done I decided to leave it until next time I my rotation.

This week it's the turn of HAED Summer ACEO but I didn't stitch last night as I had a headache. Damned things are plaguing me again and I'm hoping they go soon. I am having my eyes tested as I figured it might not be a bad idea. I only had them tested last July but it will nearly 3 years since I needed a new prescription. Unfortunately I can't get an appointment until 24th Feb.

I started Heirloom Embroideries Peachy Biscornu on Saturday. I thought I'd got the front finished on Sunday afternoon then realised I hadn't backstitched the green! LOL! So I made a start then I decided I had to put my stitching down as I couldn't concentrate on it while watching The Day After Tomorrow! It was rather gripping. Anyway this beautiful piece is just gorgeous to stitch and I can't wait to get the back done then stitch it up!

I am still doing OK on the wagon but it's getting harder as I see more stuff I like. I'm sort of wishing we'd said until 1st March and I'd be seeing a light at the end of the tunnel but never mind! February is a short month so there won't be too much longer to go after that! LOL!
