stitching along...

I have a little stitching progress to show you... I didn't get too much stitching time on Sunday with Elizabeth, but I did manage to work on her some...



I finally finished the dress! I am so thrilled to be done with it, it seemed to take forever! Now on to the other parts of the design!!!

I also worked some more on my canvas project - antique lace, with the backstitching. I made some pretty good progress on that one as well. I managed to finish up to the halfway point in the design, so the end is near! I can see it! I've included a picture of the whole design to date as well as a close up of what I've backstitched up to now...





I have continued on with the backstitching this week, so I'll see how far I can get.

I do really want to start a few new projects (again), but I'll try and be good and maybe wait till at least next week to start them or at least one of them. I'm wanting to start Just Nan's Bluebird Alphabet - I've not stitched a Just Nan before as I don't really like her designs with the exception of her snowflake. However, this one just called to me. More than likely becuase it has the alphabet in it, but the colours too. And the other one I wanted to stitch is the Birds of Feather's mystery sampler by With Thy Needle & Thread - which isn't so much of a mystery anymore as all three parts are out!

Anyways, I'll try and be good and not start anything new this week...

She looks beautiful! I want to stitch this series now that I've seen you stitch them but I have so much else in my stash! Love looking at your progress.

Thanks for the comments on my blog.
