I've run out of adjectives to describe what I think and feel when I see your updates so I will repeat some I have used over and over because your awesome perfection and speed is mind boggling. This is beautiful beyond words that describe something beautiful!!!

"only 146 PAGES TO GO". The mind boggles at those numbers.

As always a most fabulous update and we can see the 2 Angels very clearly now. Great stitching as always Vanessa.

Wonderful work, Vanessa. :applesauce: If native speakers are running short of words, a foreigner has even more difficulty with expressing her impressions from this WIP. Happy stitching!

Simply breathtaking. To have done 42% AND STILL to have 146 pages to go is insane. I doubt if I could stitch 252 pages in the rest of my life.
As usual I am amazed by your abilities, and this seems like a chart that is one that can push you to your best. I can do nothing other than express my admiration.

Regards,

Richard.

Is your new HAED "just the Super Size" version or the "Super Size Max Color version"? Those seem very similar to the Golden Kites except I don't think there are blended threads, but nearly all of the DMC colors I think. It is such a beautiful design. I was curious so checked it out.
Can't wait to see your updates on this gorgeous garden.

Barely a couple of weeks work for Vanessa. :wink:
In all honesty, Vanessa, you must be the quickest and most accurate stitcher I have come across. Remarkable.

Richard.

I so look forward to your updates and every time I am in awe. When I look at this piece I think it must all be confetti, so can't imagine what this section, which I know without a doubt you will conquer (probably in record time) as perfectly as you always are!!! :applesauce: :whoop: :whoop: :applesauce:

Thank you for sharing, Vanessa. I also always look forward to your updates. You will cope with all the confetti- there is no doubt about this.

I am stitching quite a large project, and when I feel like tucking it into the farthest corner of the bottom drawer, I remember your pictures and "borrow" patience and stubbornness from them. Thank you for inspiring.
Happy stitching!
