| Lovely piece Karen! you'll have it done in no time! |
 | OMG Karen - look at how much you got done already. I will never be able to repay you for this gift!!! |
 | z3mom wrote on May 4, '09 It's beautiful and more than I can handle; the confetti stitches in Stoney Creek designs make me CRAZY! |
 | Very pretty, but have to agree, Stoney Creek are my least favorite to stitch!!! They are beautiful when finished. I've done a couple Christmas stockings and really hope when someone wants another stocking....they choose another designer! |
| rifestitch wrote on May 4, '09, edited on May 4, '09 Actually, it doesn't look too bad - a bazillion times easier than Lady & unicorn, and about on par with a TW - so no big deal for me, really. Of course, there's also BF, which could have me eating my words later... :) |
| I think that's why it's been a UFO for five years....I can't stand stitching for hours and getting nothing done! |
|  .I can't stand stitching for hours and getting nothing done!  Methinks you don't have enough WIPs :) |
| Yeah - I have like 6 - that's enough! |
 | This is looking lovely - and I'm another one who stays away from Stoney Creek because of all the shading. Way to go, Karen! |
 | This is a beautiful piece, and in some respects doesn't take all that long for a Stoney Creek (I did it for my sis and BIL). The white on white, though, drove me NUTS! LOL |
 | Looks good, Karen! It will be a really pretty piece when finished. |
| Oh Karen - you are just flying! I love it more and more each time you show and update |
 | This is just beauitful!!! You are doing a wonderful job on this |
| I had to go look at the original! WOW, those bells and doves are huge! I thought you were about done. |
| Wow Karen - I don't know how you're doing it so fast! |
 | Beautiful, Karen! And great stitching! Thanks. |
| Oh Karen - your "little bits" are more than I would have ever done in a lifetime. I love it and can't thank you enough! |
 | Great progress Karen! I really like this sampler!! |
| Very pretty stitching! How close are you to getting done? |
| How close are you to getting done? This is just the top 1/4 of Page 1 of 4 -pages 2 & 4 are completed there on the right, so I still have a lot to do. But once I can get to the bells, they ought to move along pretty quick. The doves will, too, I think, until I go to backstitch - may have to go each "feather" as I go, so I don't get lost... I won't be able to fudge this bs like I can on a TW :) |
| Love it and totally in your debt forever! |
| This is lovely! How much more of this is left? |
| This is lovely! How much more of this is left? Above those blue ribbons are several roses to do, then another dove, and the bells. But once I get to the bells, it will go quicker - the roses and all the greenery take the most time, because there's a zillion colors in there - the bells have considerably less :) I have about 1/4 of the top left page left, and the bottom left page. |
| Those roses do look a little color intense!! You're making good progress though! |
