This is where I was last time I shared with you. It was the start of a new project on lovely blue 16 count fabric.

This is where I am at now (well actually I might be a little further along as I had to queue this post a week in advance. I have lots of family visiting this month and I’m not certain when I will be online to post):

The colour of the fabric in the second picture is a lot more life like than the original. The white thread I’ve been using has snapped on me a few times already. Nothing that wasn’t easily salvageable thankfully but I am starting to understand why the pack of thread was so cheap.

I’ve also been spending quite a lot of time with my squared paper and trying to sketch out some lettering for another project I’m hoping to work on next. I found it impossible to do on the computer so I’m trying it by hand. I won’t show you that though as it is currently a very big mess!
