The last half just seemed to take forever, especially when I got to the main darker purple. Tonight I was finally able to push through to the end.
So, finally three pages down:
The next page is, again, mostly background. There is a flower that I will actually stitch since it's kind of in the middle. So be prepared to see a few new colors, finally. As of right now, I'm still planning on keeping this my main project, however, I did start another beading project. If I'd known changing the thread count would make me work on it this much more quickly I would have done it ages ago.

I'm loving all the purples. The background should look stunning against Ophelia - when you eventually get to her! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I know what you mean the second half of every page seems to be taking forever!
ReplyDeleteI had to look up the chart to see where this was going! Charts with this much background scare me off, so I admire your progress. This will be a beauty when it is done and it is already off to a gorgeous start!
