Stitchy Update!

Hello!

I have returned from my mini-adventure and am already thinking about the next one :D Suggestions anyone?

I took my sampler away with me and didn't get that much done. I added green stems to the letter A and at first I wasn't sure but it has grown on me and I think it looks very arts & crafty. What do you think? The smaller alphabets I stitched in other colours trying to choose a shade from the variegated thread. I like the green, the yellow and am unsure about the orange (top-right), what do you think?

So as a reminder, here is the A the last time we saw it...


and here it is now...


Apologies for the poor image...here is it with the other colours...


I would have done more but did not have the variegated thread with me...so this week I shall finish this page and move to page 2.

I hope you have all had a great week too! I see that you have as I have over a thousand blogs to read :D
