Peacock TapestryUpdate

I have managed to stick to my target and completed the backstitching and leaves on the middle sheets apart from a bit of backstitching at the very top on the left. Those who know the design will see that I have actually started on the top left hand sheet. The Wool Gatherer is getting closer. Because I have been giving most of my time to this I have only been sewing for Yoyo's Christmas SAL. There are two photographs the first showing the work before a rollup and the second following the second rollup. There are hours of stitching between the two and so little to show for it. My next target is to finish the lower left hand branch and do some of the peacock's body. Wish me luck. Happy stitching to fellow UFOers.

The left hand branch is really coming to life and it looks great. I know what you mean about slow progress. I have been diligently back-stitching on Celeste and feel that there is little to show. I'll post tomorrow after the sun comes out for picture taking.

Great progress!!!! It is coming along beautifully!!!

Seeing your pictures is making me anxious to get back to my peacock!!!! I haven't had much time to stitch in last couple of weeks. I really wished I had started backstitching right away. It makes me cringe everytime I think about starting it.
