The one for the Seasonal Exchange is now in the mail winging its way to its new home. Hopefully it will be received soon. I'm going to do the finishing on the second exchange this weekend.
I did manage to make a little progress on the Hornbook Bestiary for the Scarlet Letter SAL. Let's take a look at where I was last time we visited.
Progress as of 1/24/13
Progress as of 2/6/13
The linen color in the first picture is more true to life. It's difficult to get a true picture in this winter light when I have to use the lamp instead of natural lighting to get a photo.
Here's a better close up so you can see all the over one stitching in this baby! I stitched last night until I was bleary eyed. It looks good when it's done!
I'm hoping to get the last three circles filled in soon and then I'll start on the wings. I'm itching to start one of the letters too. I may do the black outlines in one of them just to see how it looks.
Well folks, that's all I've got today. I'm hopeful I'll receive my exchange piece soon so I'll have something more to share with you or maybe mine will be received then I can show you that one.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit. I'll try not to be a stranger here. LOL! Have a great day!
Until next time,
The Inspired Stitcher

Great progress on the Hornbook - it can't be easy to stitch all that over-1 when the days are still so short.
I love it! This piece is so cool! So much over one too. Ugh. lol!
It looks wonderful. Over one is painful to stitch, but so worth the effort.
Well, I would say that you have done quite well!
I like the piece you have chosen. I am still ever hopeful that I can master this craft.
Have a good night.
