I'd like to start by welcoming my first 11 followers. So hello to Justine, Miss Lilly, Anne, Tamara, Miamina, Gizzimomo, Lauren, qtknits, Ingius, Stephie and sharine. With followers and comments it's a really uplifting feeling to know there are people all over the world who like my stitching. Thank you!
I managed to sneak in quite a bit of stitching on Sherlock over Easter with a couple of late nights as planned. However, stitching slowed down once the children were back at school and I have only just reached the 20 hour mark. So here is the latest picture:
After 10 hours
After 20 hours
I generally don't work one page at a time, but found it easier on this WIP due to the size of the chart. I am staying with Sherlock again and hope to conclude the first row by stitching the left and right hand sides and the top half of his confetti-heavy eye.
I have also made a start on my final new WIP but was told off by my son for not completing enough of Sherlock first (yes Toby, sorry Toby). So, after 4 hours and with my head hung in shame I have put it away which means you'll have to wait a while longer before it's revealed to you! But as a tease, it's another HAED with, unusually, only 31 colours. Any ideas?
Hope you all have a relaxing and stitchy Bank Holiday
All the best and
Happy stitching :)

Such beautiful colors! Can't wait to see more!
New follower to your blog - I love your idea of the 10 hour updates! I try to do once a week but sometimes I feel like I have made almost no progress in that week due to the little ones, etc. And based on your bio, I am amazed you have any time to stitch at all! Good for you :) And your macaw is so pretty - I love the colors :)
Beautiful stitching! I love the bright colors and look forward to following your progress :)
It's coming along really well, keep it up! :)
