Thanks Junette and Jen. I'm having more trouble with the flowers than the greenery though. I seem to lose my place more on those and then I get to practice
my frogging...not that I need any practice on that!!

You are maing good progress Cathy. Well done! I've been stitching Lady of Shallot since the dawn of time it seems. It's very hard to stay motivated
sometimes, so applause for you

Ah, So Cathy if we joined forces we could avoid all frogging on TWs. It's the greens that drive me bonkers time and time again. I often stitch the flowers
to help me place the greens better as I find them useful for counting and easier. Worked on Pegasus, and Guaridian at least. And don't tell me there
aren't flowers in that meadow in Pegasus, what else are the whitish and purplish stitches if they aren't random wild flowers.

Avoiding all frogging...that would be a dream come true, huh Jen? And what would a meadow be without flowers?? Surely those are flowers in the meadow!!

Here's a pic of my March progress. I didn't realize
there were several different versions of this one until I got to the Heart Motif Border so I had to stop and do a little Internet searching to find out what to
do. I think I've got it straight now so maybe April will be a good month. You can't see the top anymore because it's rolled up on the scroll frame.
Thanks for looking! |

Thanks y'all. The heart motif section is really fun with all the different specialty stitches. The lazy daisies remind me of my first attempt at
embroidery. I can't remember how old I was or what the piece was but I remember it was the lazy daisy stitch.
Thank you Grandma!

I finished the Wedding Sampler
last night and I'm ecstatic! I can't believe how much trouble I had with the name section...so much frogging and
redoing...I don't know why I couldn't get the names and date centered but I've finally succeeded. DD and I are going this afternoon to pick out a
frame. I will say this...there is no picture that can do this piece justice. It is absolutely exquisite. I kept up with my hours starting in November and it
took me 140 hours from that point. Thanks for all your encouragement!
