Don't you just love those pouty lips?!
I've been working on Dark Cherry and The Encounter too but just haven't got around to taking up-to-date progress shots yet. It is SAL weekend for Dark Cherry so I will wait until that's finished before taking another pic.
Ruth asked how it is that I find over one stitching to be soothing - lol. I honestly don't know :) I get into a zone where I can just leave everything behind, be it a crappy day or worry over a family member or friend, and head off to daydream land for a couple of hours. If something's bothering me I've usually thought out a solution after a stitching session too :) And, it always amazes me that after hours of stitching tiny little crosses, it will take just one and suddenly an eye or a mouth, or a turret of a castle or a tiny little flower or leaf, will appear.
Or it could be that I'm just bonkers - lol!

She is looking beautiful!
I agree about over one stitching-you just get in that zone, and then something appears, so you have to keep going to see the next thing!
Plum Gothic is stunning! I am glad that you have finished the face, including those pouty lips. I like stitching over one also, as long as I don't have to frog anything.
Mel, she looks amazing!
She's gorgeous! I'm going to be picking up my haeds again soon. I miss them.
Bonkers? Perhaps. :) But I know what you mean about things suddenly appearing in your stitching and, for me, they always bring an surprised sort of joy. Why the surprise I do not know -- afterall -- it's my intent when stitching to make things show up on the fabric, right?
Love your progress!
Hello! congrats for your original stitch! I like it so much!
Plum is looking beautiful.
She is amazing! Where can I get lips like those??
Mel she looks fantastic! I love her face.
I understand about going into that zone -- I esp like to do that before falling asleep ... but, stitching over one? That is a challenge for this fossil!!! I limit my over one stitching to an hour at a time. I love your projects -- stunning
Wow this is stunning Mel :)
