12 Days - Update 21

Just around the corner. Literally. Then the beads and to have it finished.

12 Days - Update 20

The 12 days part of 12 Days has been backstitched! I still have to do the rest of the red robe, but at least you can tell what each of the days are now. The cow was a little lost, and the goose just looked like a smudge on leaves (maybe leaves).

The gold trim outside of the purple border is proceeding. After that, beads!

12 Days - Update 19

The filling in is complete for the 12 days, and I am working on the pattern outside the purple border and will start completing the backstitching.

12 Days - Update 18

The 8 maids are finished - now to finish the 6 Geese.

12 Days - Update 17

Well, I took the cow by the, uh, horns, and the 8 Maids are almost complete - just a matter of filling in with white and then backstitch, of course. Started on the leaves for the 6 Geese.

12 Days - Update 16

Productive weekend. Even did some stitching outside. Stitched to football games, while my daughter played in the treehouse at my place, and even while trick-or-treaters knocked during a Mel Brooks marathon at Lexy's house on Halloween. And all to absolutely gorgeous weather.

SO here we are. Two turtle doves, 6 geese a-laying, and 8 maids a-milking left to go. I finished the Space Invader Flowers on the bottom. I may leave the robe for last - those swirling reds are really annoying.

12 Days - Update 15

Working on the remaining border. The blue should be finished tonight. The purple should be finished tomorrow. Then probably the rest of the flowers and then the robe. Then the maid a-Milking and the Geese a-Laying.

Of course, I would not post this without a full shot of the project without the q-snap.
