Yesterday was a sewing day, and today was a stitching day.
A whole lotta blue stitching.
Last night during my online computer time, I finally got the nerve and posted my very meager progress on the Official Group Forum. And since I’d like to not completely embarrass myself with only one lonely progress pic, I decided to get to work on this beast beauty!
So, after about 3.5 hours of stitching today, here’s where I stand:
And so you don’t have to scroll back a few posts…here’s where it was before today:
I love that it’s actually starting to take some shape and look like what I know to be the center of this gorgeous design! I’m still way behind, but definitely getting more and more motivated with each stitch!
Also noteworthy is that my stitches seem to be improving a bit as I get back into the swing of stitching again. {some of those gold colored stitches are SCARY!} I used to pride myself in my very neat stitches…so I’d like to get back to them soon! Like riding a bike…I hope…

It is lovely!
Very pretty!
It's very pretty, but doesn't it amaze you something as to how long it takes to stitch something.?
It's looking so pretty! Isn't it amazing how long it takes to stitch something as intricate as Martina's designs? I don't have the patience myself. lolol!
Good progress, it is looking great!
Blue is my favourite color and seeing so many shades of it... Lovely! It really pops on black.
Hugs,

The colours are gorgeous. They just pop on that fabric. x
You're doing great - what a beauty!
Your stitching looks perfect to me and since I had never seen this design before I had to follow your link. I was not surprised to find it is a Chatelaine design. It will be gorgeous.
I don't think I have been to your blog before but I'm a new follower and loving everything I see.
Your drawstring bag is so cute, your Dresden Plates are gorgeous and I love the knitting also.
Lots of eye candy here :)
