Hello,
I have finished all my black stitches and now I can see a "skeleton" of my work! (Is that the correct expression in English? :thinks: )
7339 stitches of black!
Done in about a month I think it's good.

:horse: :dance:



And tomorrow I will start with colour 809 "delft blue"

Yes it is, it's a tropical beach. A few people have guessed it right.
Now that I'm going to add all those shades of blue it's going to be obvious. In fact I might change the title now.

It's looking really great and a WELL DONE on getting past all that black. Looking forward to seeing some of the other colours coming into it.

Today I have finished a skein of "delft blue"
I still have a few more stitches to do on this colour but I wanted to post a picture anyway.

Hello!
I have been very busy in October so I couldn't do a lot of stitching, but I finally finished all the stitches in delft blue!
