Sunday Stitching

I've been having computer issues the past couple of days, so I didn't get anything posted yesterday. I did a good bit on ATS; the motifs are all done, as is all the lettering except for the final date and my initials. That leaves the rest of the dreaded grass!


I'm glad you didn't put yours up on E-Bay, Donna. It's a lot of work but it's a very satisfying project. It's not difficult at all; it's just that the size is so daunting. Mine is stitched on 36 count fabric with DMC floss. I kind of wish I'd ponied up for the GAST threads but it's too late for that now -- I'm not frogging it!

Karen, I have really enjoyed watching yours come together and as I said before...seeing your current progress on ATS made me want to keep mine. All those years ago, when I bought the fabric, floss and chart (from Lydia BTW :) I orderd the GAST to do it with. I like the look of the DMC and until you said something just now, I would not have known you didn't use the GAST.

It's beautiful. Like the colors. You did wonderful progress on it. Maybe it's God way of telling you to do this & not being on computer. LOL ~ Dawn ~

You were a busy stitcher on Sunday, Karen! Good for you! Hope the grass fill-in doesn't drive you too nutty. It sure is a beautiful piece.
