Stunning work!

I don't wonder! That AF reminds me of one picture I stitched for this woman, who lives in a town near my hometown. I asked her once, when she lived closer with her husband, if she likes winter or autumn. She said autumn. I never told her what I was planning. Then I just stitched and stitched, until the last stitch found its' place. The Local Framer Man stepped in and framed the picture, and I sent it to the woman.
She was totally surprised, just the way I had planned! She said she loved the picture. I smiled and thought "this is what I was planning all the time, but I didn't tell you before now".

Today I needed a quick break from my wreath and so I stitched up this little pin cushion for my needles. Unfortunately I don't have anything at home to stuff it with so this has to wait until next week.
I took the design and idea from CrossStitcher magazine issue 305.

That is stunning! I am sure you will find the right way to finish this. You can stitch!

Lovely Strawberry!

Looks good enough to eat!

Yummy!!

Autumn Forest is lovely, and the strawberries very sweet.

I took the opportunity to read this thread from the start, and my oh my!, hasn't your stitching confidence grown. It's wonderful to see.

very pretty

Adorable! Well done

Thank you everyone!
MysteryStitcher, I loved reading your story, thank you for sharing!
Serinde, maybe my confidence has grown, but maybe I am just crazy.

I can now show a little progress on my wreath. Unfortunately I haven't had as much stitching time as I would've liked, but progress is progress.

This is gong to be another pretty one. Look forward to another update

Sina, thank you! I am glad you were able to read it. And that stitching is awesome!

Thank you! Maybe I can commit to some stitching on this today.

I am sure you will tame it in no time.

Looking very pretty!!! Great update!!

I've been having a lot of things interfere with my stitching time too, but progress is progress, and every stitch gets us closer to a finish. And your stitches look lovely. Can't wait to see more.

I agree with you, Mouselady. Every stitch the stitcher makes is one stitch closer to the finish line.

That is looking so pretty already and you are making lovely progress on this colourful design.

Very pretty progress and I agree any progress is good. This will be lovely!

Super update Every stitch is progress
