Maxine's Update

I didn't stitch much at all last week (again!!) I don't know why because I really want to stitch but when I get sat down I just can't be bothered! I did stitch on Thursday for the HAED SAL and for a change (thought it might make me stitch a bit more) I gor Dragon Riders out. I stitched for what seemed like quite a while but it soesn't look like I got that much done. It's by Steve Roberts and this is what it wil look like when it's done....

All I managed to get done was the start of page 3. I think I might stick with this this week and try to get at least half a page done. Thanks for reading and leaving your comments :)

Hello Maxine !

In your post you say that, sometimes, desire is not present enough to stitch. But don't give up, because first you are not alone. In fact, I'm sure that we all can not wait to see this beautiful dragon progress. And secondly, I understood that you strongly want your project to take shape.

If it can helps you, you could maybe aim at a little objective like a few cross or only one color, or one square, or anything not to big but just to start again.

So, let's go, and I'm sure that the desire will naturally come again.
Keep going !!
Your work is really wonderful, have a nice week !

Really lovely colours! I've not seen this one before. For me, I have the desire to stitch and too many things to stitch, no idea where to start.

This is a wonderful progress already! Don't give up on it, because I really wants to see it grow also. The more you will be stitching on it, the more it will looks gorgeous.
