Woo boy, long time no update. Definitely not enough stitchy time lately!

I did finish two more pages (10 and 11) and they are lovely!




Thank you all for your lovely compliments!

I've always been fond of this picture! Looking forward to seeing it grow.

I can't believe that only took you 18 months! Wow! It is absolutely stunning. Wonderful job.

First row of pages is done and hot off the needle! I started this about a year ago exactly, so I'm pleased with the progress (42,000 stitches!). I am also really glad to get back over to the other side of the piece where I can stitch with green floss instead of yellow! I'm getting a little sick of t...

This chart is so darn cute! Looks fantastic so far, can't wait to see more.

Nice start on an adorable project! I'm definitely a one project at a time stitcher. I work on large projects that have a fair amount of variety to stitch, so boredom is not an issue for me. Plus I don't get a whole lot of time to stitch lately, anyway -- if I had more than one project going, nothing...

Oh my word, this is incredibly amazing! I am completely in awe.

I finished pages 6 and 7 a couple of weeks ago, so time for a picture update! It was fun to stitch the little birds for a bit of variety. Amusingly, I didn't even notice the orange one at the bottom until I took it off the Qsnaps for the full picture. This is definitely a piece better viewed from a ...

Congrats on a beautiful finish! I love that design, too, so colorful and sweet.

And, wow, those are some fabulous kitties you have.

Wow, great progress! It's looking wonderful, can't wait to see how it continues to grow.

Thanks, everyone! Yes, stitching has been a welcome distraction from "real life" lately. On my previous large project, I typically stitched through a page every 4-5 weeks. This chart has more stitches per page so that slows me down a bit, but still shooting for a page completion every 6 we...

http://i.imgur.com/ZZmJtYz.jpg It's been a busy few months with a lot of emotional turmoil, but I finished page 5 a couple weeks ago, so time for an update! I still absolutely love working on this, although looking ahead, I think I'm going to get a bit sick of stitching pale creamy yellows. Ah, wel...

That is looking amazing! Beautiful stitching.

Big kudos to you for taking on all that solid black stitching! It is looking fantastic.

Slow progress but two more pages done! When I actually find the time and energy to stitch on this, I'm really loving it. Enough confetti and detail to keep things interesting, but not so much that it makes me crazy. Colors are pretty, too!

Another big project started and on its way! This is Stephanie Pui-Mun Law's "Allegro," charted by HAED. http://heavenandearthdesigns.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=160_46_116&products_id=11859&zenid=4a9009508263a2396960b4b1c7446808" target="_blank" ta...

Finally got around to getting this framed! Very pleased with the final result. Now to find a place to hang it...

This is such a gorgeous project! Lovely stitching.

Thank you to all for your lovely compliments! It's such a weird feeling to have this thing done. Last stitch went in and I went "What do I do with all my time now??" (I think I'm going to take up crochet for a bit before starting another BAP cross-stitch.) AlwaysGoofy -- Yep, I still love ...

Thank you to all (again) for your lovely comments. I've finally finished!

Took 3.5 years, 126,000 stitches, and 90 different colors. I'll be getting it custom framed here shortly.
