You might stitch at super speed but it doesn't affect the quality of your stitching, this design is looking fantastic, and the detail is superb, I can't wait to see him start to appear! I'm looking forward to more updates
Just remember, Vanessa, when talking to us mere mortals, your 'Lost the stitchy bug' means that you stitch at only 10x the speed of the rest of us. And when you have the bug, you stitch at 100x the rate.
I really can't get over your speed, it's stupendous. And yet, it looks as if you can't possibly have a single stitch in the wrong place. It's enough to make a grown man very envious of your abilities.
You may have lost the stitchy bug for a while Vanessa but you certainly kept your speedy needle for when you started again. My word, how well you have done. It is wonderful how you have coped with all the black & it lovely to see another colour coming into this. So neatly stitched as always. A great update

Dear Vanessa I really do admire your work it’s taken me 2 months to finish one page! Working on it few hours each evening, tell me your secret. What I am wanting to ask what count material are you stitching on and if your doing 1x1 or 2x1:
Maybe Vanessa has some fairies stitching at nights? I always considered myself not a slow stitcher, but as compared with Vanessa, I am just sitting doing nothing and call it stitching. Very well done, Vanessa.
I am also interested to hear whether you stitch by full stitches at once or by those rows of halves and then complete them as you return? Because if you make those rows of halves, then I really cant understand your speed.
Anyway, I always like to see your works and WIPs. Happy stitching!
Everybody wants your secret, Vanessa!
Your work is amazing.

I stitch full stitches. Thanks for all your kind comments everyone. I think my speed is down to all your encouraging comments

Well, that's 60 days of stitching done in 9.
Methinks the lady is quite brilliant. Perfect stitching, just left in utter disbelief at the speed & precision.
