I'm taking a blog writing break just now. No, not a break from blog posting, but a break from proof-reading a chapter of Sir's doctoral thesis to write my blog!!=) It's not time for a holiday from my blog just yet. I might take a week off every quarter or so. At the moment though, I've too much to show to want to get that far behind with posting.
I've been working a little on the Paradise Island cross stitch and there's still not so much to see. The first picture is how far I got on the last day I posted about it, a week ago. The second one is after two more sessions' work. It looks a bit like a map at the moment. The 'V' at the bottom left hand side reminds me a bit of the outline of India on a proper globe, but the wrong colour, of course!!
This piece is the complete opposite of the Tudor Lady. This piece is whole cotton cross stitches only, whereas the last one was cross stitch, petit point, satin stitch, beading, rayons, metallics and what have you. This is simplicity itself and will make a nice change to stitch.=)
As always, head over to Pintangle to see what the rest of the WIPW-ers have been doing.
There should be a tutorial coming up this weekend! I'm just going to make a start on writing it/preparing the photos, so look out for that, Friday or Saturday.=)
