Hello everyone! Hope everyone had a lovely week! I got a little stitching done on Persephone but mostly worked on Deep Blue Sea. I spent two nights in the Urgent Care with sick little boys so I got a lot of stitching done in the waiting rooms. I'm still chugging away at Persephone. She's slowly getting the rest of her tail. I think once I'm past this part I'm cutting out, it will be faster because I can follow the chart instead of improvising as I go.
I got a quarter of the way through part two of Deep Blue Sea. It's slow going because there is a lot of over one stitching in this part and I'm stitching on a 32 dark colored opalescent.
The fabric is not as yellow as it seems in the picture, I just had terrible lighting today. It's hard to tell from the picture, but I substituted all of the NPI silks for overdyed cottons. I really like the way it is coming out, but it is rather boring to stitch. TTFN!

Thanks to Deborah, I now have the petite silk lame so I'm filling in the gray curlyques. They are VERY sparkly and the picture just doesn't do them justice. And here's a close-up of my tiny over one starfish.
Aren't they cute? And only 12 more left to stitch!
My friend Jule is making me pull out a UFO and stitch on it once a month. It is Shores of Hawk Run Hollow by Carriage House Samplings and I'm stitching it one over two on 40 ct linen. She's just started this one so a group of us are going to meet once a month to work on this one or other UFOs.
