Aww, thank you! I am glad you like them. I like them myself too. And Rio...even I must raise my head from time to time...it helps me and speeds my needle, so that there are little areas that grow bit by bit. Sounds crazy but it's true.

Awww! I am glad you do. But as I said, you will never see the whole project, thanks to the fact it does not fit on my scanner. But a little flash is better than nothing.

Well, I must confess something right away. The LRR will stay in Finland. But the LYR will go far beyond the borders of Finland. The LYR's future home is in America. But because TLYR is a surprise (be it "my condolences" - kind of) to the new owner, I can't tell even the state.

Aw, thanks! You don't know how much your encouragement means to me. The LYR needs stitching black on black, even the LRR needed it too. But the LYR needs it even more. Even the outer border is black. So I can make progress, yes, but it is slow. Very slow.

LYR is...I don't say it is an UFO, but it's not a WIP either. I have a FO I can show you, though. I finished it a few moments ago. The canvas is too big to fit completely into my scanner, so I can show you only a partial picture of it. Image

Aw, thank you! That is simply "Yellow Roses". It will probably go to my uncle. He has become a grandfather and a father - in - law more than a year ago. All that canvas needs now is a little touch from the trustworthy local Framing Man. I'm already curious to see what kind of frame he will choose.

The picture I thought being a tulip was a rose, a red rose. It was the red version of the Yellow Rose I showed you earlier. So I stitched the red one and the yellow one and sent them, framed of course. They are on their way. I can't wait to hear what the future owners think. I hope they understand the situation and appreciate the gifts.

Hi!
Stitching continues, but now all the items under processing are surprises. So no pictures. I am sorry about that, but I do not want to spoil the surprise. I have my hands full, that's for sure.
