I am chosen to do it a bit different and instead of on a light coloured fabric I'm stitching on Penny Copper 32ct Linen.
So far the linen this time around is giving me some grief. I think I have frogged more than I have in the last year just this weekend on this project. But it's starting to come together. I think I am going to backstitch over 2 as the pattern suggests for the vines and stuff, but I still haven't decided... And I won't be adding beads until the end so that I can iron the piece, after the two years it will take for them to release it all).
Here is the pic.
I also had a lot of work last week on Judgement. Two whole nights devoted just to it and I got alot done. I am hoping I will be lucky enough to have page 2 done by the end of the month (this may be wishful thinking but we will see). Here is it's update pic (sorry it's a bit blurry. This one is really tough to get a good shot of cause the stitches are so small! Also the light here makes it looks less even than it is. sorry I'll have to try and get a better one on the next time around.)
This weekend coming up with Easter is a crazy one for me. My entire family is here in town from all over the place. (my siblings don't live here). So should be fun but also busy. Not sure if I will be able to fit in some stitching or not.
My priority for the next little bit is to finish up this section of Papillion. And also really need to get working back on Sleep Tight. My cousin's baby isn't going to wait for me! :)

Both look good!
They both look wonderful! Enjoy your time with your family.
Your Papillon sal is looking great. I also love the work you have done on Judgment. They are both coming along very nicely.
The Papillion SAL looks great. Nice choice in the fabric. You have made a lot of progress on the Judgement.

Nice progress on both projects
Lovely fabric for your Papillon SAL. Great stitching on both projects
I hope you get past the frogging part and get into a good rhythm to complete the first part. Have fun and enjoy your family this holiday!
Nice progress on both!
You're off to a great start on the Papillion SAL :0) Accomplished quite a lot on Judgement too. Hard to tell just how much you've done while stitching until you look at the last update isn't it? Happy Easter!
