I have actually done some stitching this time and it has all been on Gracious Era. It has been too humid to do much stitching as I could not seem to keep my hands dry and for me this made stitching difficult but I know I am close to the end so have decided until its done this is the only project I will be stitching on (unless we decide on another holiday lol).
So this was the last time I worked on this project
and this is how it is now
It looks quite a lot because its starting to close the gap in the middle, so it is giving me a little incentive.
Please grab a coffee and spend some time seeing what the others in the SAL group have been up to. There are people from all over the world and such varied projects that its really a fun group to belong too. If you would like to join us and get incentive to work on a ufo or complete a large project then please contact Avis.
Here are the other members of the group:
Avis, Claire, Gun, Carole, LucyAnn, Kate, Jess, Sue, Constanze, Debbierose, Christina, Susan, Kathy, Margaret,
Cindy, Steph, Linda, Catherine, Wendy
EDITED TO SAY – many apologies for some reason I missed Mary Margaret and Timothy from my link. So please visit them too Mary Margaret, Timothy
All for now folks
Hugs

Starting to see the hansom cab body really does help fill the space. I do love the little snowflakes – are they beaded?

No Kate, they are all French knots, so I would imagine it will take the whole of three weeks to finish the once I get that far.

Aaargh! They seemed to catch the light, so I thought they might be tiny glittery beads. Good luck with all the knotting!

I bet the handsome cab at least seems to go fast, just because it fills the empty space and is so geometric. This is going to be so lovely to have finished for the holidays! How awesome for you!
