CITA Part Five Finished!


When it comes to reading my updates, my blog is rather like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get, (as said Forrest Gump lol ).
I really wanted to spend this week exclusively on Green Man, but I had a massive urge to stitch on Castles in the Air.

Here is a before picture:


Here is a now picture:

I love doing speciality stitches, the more intricate, the better!

Well until next time my lovely people!
Love and stitches one and all!

  15. It looks wonderful Kelly, you make me want to pull mine out to finish part 4.

  16. Oh Kelly, it's looking beautiful! I'm still working on part 4 and have got some of the circle motifs done, I think I have half of them yet to do. I can't wait to do the peacocks, they're so pretty.

    I understand about the urge to stitch something particular, because I've been trying to devote time to Winter Queen for my daughter, but there are days when I just HAVE to stitch CITA or my Workbasket Quaker sampler.

  17. Looking good!!! I am on the inside motifs now. The swan is the last one I've done. I love the specialty stitches too!

  18. I think we are at the EXACT same spot now! I haven't worked on mine in months....maybe that should be over a year!

  19. Makes me want to start mine, lol.

  20. That's so beautiful! Not sure about speciality stitches myself though...I have to do a few when I get to them on my Chatelaine, and not too confident!
