On the Gallop again. Carousel Horse TW


Well after one or two (or maybe more) drastic days I seem to have got back on course. One poor leaf was done three times at least you know the system -right place wrong colour, right colour wrong place finally right place right colour. Next disaster was the realisation that I'd run out of a thread. Now to contact Janlynn. Thread on the way-Yippee-. Anyhow it's not as thought there isn't much else to do so I've battled on regardless. Huge amounts of backstitching done and also the border is growing . Any way my mind is now definitely drifting towards framing and also finding out my next UFO (perhaps this is wishful thinking for a while yet but HOPE springs ETERNAL. Happy stitching to you all and keep the good work with your own UFOs

This is such a pretty piece. It won't be long before you're hanging it on your wall.
Isn't it nice to see light at the end of the tunnel?

You have to hate that kind of mishap when stitching. But it's looking great!

You are in the final furlong. Let's hope there are no hidden fences to hinder your progress.
