Summer Queen WIP
I finally decided it was time to just take out my stitching and STITCH, even though I really had so many other things I needed to get done. I also thought it would be a good idea to pull out my Summer Queen (Mirabilia's design) since I hadn't worked on it since last May!
The hard part of the whole process was that the last time I worked on this piece I didn't properly mark my chart copy, thus it took some time to figure out where I was on the chart.
I only have a small section of the Queen to complete, and there was a time I thought I was DONE until I discovered this small section at the bottom of the design.
Here she is, before I worked on her:

Here she is now, after a bit of work yesterday and also last May:


A few more photos:



One more that shows its size:

I plan on stitching some more this week, and hopefully I will finish her sometime this year.
Thanks for stopping by here today.

Wow! I know the amount of work that takes. I am a stitcher too and have a project that was started...way too long ago...and still needs to be finished. It definitely is a work of art! Beautiful!

That is absolutely beautiful! I don't remember what the whole pattern looks like but it doesn't seem like you have much more to go. I hope that you have her finished soon. She's stunning!!
