Aw, thank you!
After that girl has been sent to her target, I have to grab a matriculation examination present. After that I must grab another matriculation examination present. Maybe after that I can grab that wedding day present that has been my WIP for quite a long time already. Oh well, at least I have my hands full of work.

Well, a small matriculation examination present has been done and framed and now I have it in the safe place to wait the Big Day. If, and that's really an if, she invites me, I have what to take with me. But even if she didn't invite me, I'll send her the present anyway. Now I have one combined "thank you, my condolences and you're such a great friend who has been there for me" - present as my WIP. I hope I can make at least a few stitches on it, so that it makes progress.

Aww, Serinde, I sure hope so!
The latter present got a few stitches last Friday, and I hope I'll be able to make a few more next Friday. I'm stitching the outer border. It helps to keep the thing together, so that it won't just fall apart.

I've kept stitching that lady's picture. It's awesome! I simply love it, be it there are many colors and tones too.

Hi!
Long time no see.
This is my most recent one. No, it is not a FO. It is a WIP. It has been a WIP over a year. But I do my best to make it a FO. Then the new owner can decide about the frame. This is one rare exception, but in this case, it is better to do so.

Thanks, Serinde!
I sure hope the day will come that the horses will get the new home I've planned for them.

Thanks! I am glad to be back. And that horse canvas has made little progress bit by bit. I hope it will make it to the finish line.

Awww! Thanks! Yes, it has made a lot of progress. I sure hope I will get to the final stitch. I got to the last stitch with the ship canvas, and that canvas already has a new home. The horse one's new home has already been selected, but they don't know the exact details.

If you see flowers, you see right. I took a little break from the mare and her foal and changed to flowers. This flower one is "Congratulations for saying the famous words!" - present. The other half of the happy couple is still unknown. The groom - to - be hasn't met the real bride - to - be yet. So I am so glad I can wait.
I call this "Flowers in the pot".

Aww, thank you! I like it too. I hope I can choose the colors right. The thing called mesh is so big in this I can stitch only a bit at a time. Like three hours a day or something. You get the picture. One morning tv program is just a good measure. But there are many programs ahead yet. As you see there are huge areas unstitched yet.

The mare and her foal are lovely. The deep colours around them makes it a peaceful scene.
Beautiful stitching!
