just a quick update

Here is my SpiritDancer - my goal is to have her done by the end of May.

"Red and Yellow Maple Leaves"

I finished "Red and Yellow Maple Leaves" today.  It is a chart from Japan.  I will have it framed professionally since it was a big project which took me 6 months off and on to complete.  This is my first completed UFO challenge of 2013.

Viv's Deep Blue Sea

OK - as promised, here is my progress on Deep Blue Sea - I've nearly finished Part One, and made a start on the next two parts.  No beads or crystals yet.  I intend to sew the beads on before progressing to Part Four, but all the crystals will have to wait until the end; I'm worried that they might catch on threads/fabric and cause damage.  Hopefully clicking on the thumbnail will take to a better view :)

Meari's Japanese Garden

I've made some progress! Here's what it looked like before:

 

And now:

 

Other JG WIP photos can be seen HERE. It's pretty cool to see the steps along the journey.   To answer Chris' question... I have found stitchers who had the colors I was short on so hopefully, I will have enough to finish JG.

progress of "Red and Yellow Maple Leaves"

I am slowly near the end of this design, "Red and Yellow Maple Leaves".  Hopefully I can finished this before end of April.   It is 15 inches high by 12 inches wide.  I have a few backstitching to do when I finished the stitching part.

I’ve made quite a bit of progress since my last post.  Here’s some updated photos:

"Red and Yellow Maple Leaves"

Progress updated as of Feb 28.   I am excited that I can see the light near the end of the tunnel.  I have 3/4 of the design done.  I am hoping to finish it in March.

Above the light is not reflecting off the camera but you can't see the bottom of the fabric very well.

socialsue, "Red and Yellow Maple Leaves"
