Friday SAT Let's Stitch Update

I tell you, this SAT Friday thing over at Let's Stitch is an absolute corker - it helped too that H was away on business and so I only needed to stop briefly for a quick snack rather than prepare a proper meal ;) (Shhh, don't tell him, he will frown at me!)

My goal this week was to finish the big motif I was stitching, and had been stitching on seemingly endlessly since July. JULY, folks. Which is ridiculous really, but I did have quite a bit of holiday and other commitments in August, September and October, so I suppose I have half an excuse for why this took so long...

The good news is I'm on to page 6, and once I'm finished page 6, I'll be at the HALFWAY POINT in this sampler! In fact, I'll be a little bit past halfway because I've stitched little bits of pages 7 and 8 aready. I'm really hoping I'll hit halfway before the end of 2008, but with a long holiday in prospect, I may not quite get it done. I will keep you posted of course ;)

Here is last night's progress:



Happy stitching!
