Winter's Majesty Update

I've not managed to get an amazing amount done on this since the last update, but I am most definitely getting there with her. Nearly half way through now, and hopefully when she comes on rotation again (which should be two weeks unless I decide to do Endless) I'll finish off this section and start on the next half!

Here's how she's looking now:

Majesty, Majesty

I think I've done fairly well with stitching this week, especially since I've been having issues with my fingers swelling and whatnot, so I'm happy with how much progress I've made. After some advice given to me earlier this week, I decided to wash the project before I carried on with it, even though I'd been stitching bits and pieces since the weekend. I was so worried about rubbing the dirt in, but now, I'm quite chuffed with it. It's still not amazingly clean, but will most certainly do until it's done and I wash it through with liquid detergent.

I'll be working on Majesty, along with some charity cards for CSF for the next week or so, and then it'll be back to Endless. I'm hoping to switch things up a bit with a few more designs I've seen and want, or have and am determined to do, and I really have to sort out my charts, but I need folders and plastic wallets and lots of labels before I do that. And the time. And the inclination. I'll get there in the end!!!!

Here's my progress:


 
 

Thanks for all your comments, and thank you to those of you who have started following my mad ramblings!

Winter's Majesty

This design is absolutely beautiful. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it, and knew Mum would love it (even if I did secretly want it for myself.) I'd planned originally, to have it finished for May 2009 so that she could have it as a birthday gift, but due to injuries that left me unable to stitch, it never happened.

It's a gorgeous kit, stitched on 16 count blue Aida, with a finished size of 34x34 cm. This is what it will look like once it's completed:

And this is what it looks like now (last stitched - Jan 2009):

170 hrs (ish)

I'm currently working on a HAED, so WM is on a rotation with that. It'll be lovely to get back to it - maybe Mum will like it for Christmas!
