It's been much longer than I expected, but adding a time limit left much less time to post here. Also my phone's camera refuses to take pictures right now. So, what I've been working on...
First, I started on my large scale project-
and to have an idea of how that compares to the whole thing:
I am at least finished with DMC #310 in that. For those wondering, it is a pattern I found here, but as I'll not be making progress for a while, I'll also wait on saying what it is (but feel free to guess).
While working on that, I had to make a pattern for a request, and here's my start to it:
That is 32-count linen, amd it makes me feel like I have incredible vision when I go back to 14-count aida.
Even more interesting, this pattern requires two pieces that I'll have to stitch together once I get enough done to need to.
However, getting thread, I came upon a pre-made pattern that I thought a cousin of mine would like. In order to keep it (somewhat) secret even if my cousin reads this thead specifically, I'm keeping to the back of the project until finished and given:
Of course, when I got that one, I spotted another one that was wedding-themed. Having been trying to think of some stitching I could do for my brother's wedding, this was a perfectly timed find. Once again, I'll stick to the back for now.
Of course, the bottom left of that image is one stitch to close to the center. Luckily, it's only background coloring, so I should be able to work around it fairly easily.
