Sorry I'm late, but my son and his gf came to visit this weekend. It was so good to see them and I miss them again already:(

Here is my before:

I really enjoy stitching this and I especially enjoy watching all of yours grow too! I hope you all have a great week!

Hello Cindy !
Your St Nick is beautiful to see growing !
I'm still thinking that the owl is standing on a rocking chair and not the globe...
It's a pleasure to see it taking shapes, it really looks wonderful !
Happy stitching !

Hi Cindy!
Great progress! And I think Marie is right with the rocking chair :P

Your back looks like a painter's palette, a lot of great colors!
Nice work... With all the details in this drawing, we discovered something new every week!

That's a nice size block you got stitched! Your back looks like mine, kinda reminds me of a bird's nest!

Wow Cindy!
You sure are stitching away!
The back looks like some beautiful abstract fiber art!
All of it is extremely lovely :)

You are moving along nicely Cindy. There is sooo much detail in this design so I can only imagine how much confetti stitches there are... good on you hun for coping well with them. I hate confetti stitches...I balance it out by doing a page full of confetti and then try and find a page with blocks of stitches to make it more easy going :)

Wendy said...

Wow, that is a wonderful progress already!! You sure did a great progess on it. And your back is looking fine to me. It is the front that counts.
