This month's update photograph mirrors the long working hours of recent weeks. As I have
mentioned previously this is our busy time of year and although cross stitch is often a very soothing way to spend time, it also requires concentration (especially for a Teresa Wentzler design like this) otherwise a very tired mind/eyes/body may make mistakes. This isn't a good look - mostly because you only tend to notice mistakes once you are fresh, awake and buzzing on caffeine. This may be several weeks after the initial cock-up. And this can lead to much frogging and swearing.
And no one
needs to see or hear that !
So, here's the updated photograph. Only changes are to the turret area, and very little of that.
Now that the excessively busy few weeks are coming to an end, I've got my fingers crossed for a bit of progress in September. Check back at the beginning of October.

That is really coming along wonderfully! I love Teresa Wentzler's designs. I have done a few myself. This one is one of my favorites! Are you going to do the faces over 1? Lovely work!
Hi Denise,
Thanks for visiting. It has been a long drawn out process, but I love this design too, so I'm persevering.
Yes, the faces will be done over 1. But like a coward, I'm leaving them until I've done the rest. I'm not looking forward to having a pronounced squint at the end of it all. ;)
