Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
At the half way mark. Haven't been doing much stitching this summer, but now that fall is here I'm hoping to change that:)

Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
That is very beautiful! Can't wait to see more.
Glad it sounds like you will be working on it more in the near future.

Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
What a lovely piece and you're making great progress! I had to laugh at your comment about it being a small project. I'd consider this a large project, lol.

Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
I totally agree with seedreemer on project size. I would also consider this design quite big ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
But I love Tuscany and really enjoy looking as it gradually appears on your stitching![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
This is such an elegant project! It looks like something right out of the sketchbook of a well-traveled artist! I adore the effect that your half-crosses (half stitches? tent stitches? I'm not quite sure which term to use) have. What do you plan to do with this lovely piece when you finish?
Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
Thanks all!. Anything will be small after my 10 year long project I did of a TW dragon- so it's all relative-LOL

Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
Not progressing as fast as I would like but it is moving along slowly... More confetti than I would like...

Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
Confetti stitches are a right (and left!) pain..
..BUT the overall effect at the Finish will be worth it!.
I think it's looking good and you've done a great job!![applesauce :applesauce:](./images/smilies/eusa_clap.gif)

Re: Dreaming of Tuscany
It is looking great though and you are making progress. Just keep at it 1 stitch at a time and it will be finished quicker than you can imagine. ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

It looks lovely! The confetti isn't fun, but it is so worth it in the end.
