Hogwarts In A Bottle - 20 hours

Hello all!

Yes, some of you guessed correctly, after Parrot on Parade I couldn't resist returning to my most important piece of stitching this year! I had some lovely comments on my previous Hogwarts post, thank you, and they helped ensure I return to this project rather than indulge in another new start.

Here's how I left it after 10 hours:


And now after 20 hours:


And the full piece:



I'm afraid it's only more bottle top and cork, so nothing particularly exciting yet. But progress is progress. I reckon I might just get to the actual castle towards the end of the next 10 hour session and then it'll start getting really interesting - not that it isn't interesting now but it'll be lovely to start stitching the Hogwarts castle itself.

This project has to go away for a couple of weeks now while I squeeze in something before month end and then stitch my 3 beginning-of-the-month projects for February. But it will definitely make an appearance again immediately after those. Promise!

Take care,
Rachel x

  4. Great progress why don't you just keep stitching on this one until your done or bored with it. That's what I'm doing right now stitching miss moss/moth until done, I just can't put her down. Happy stitching!

  8. Great progress! I'm sure this will be really hard to put down once you reach the castle itself.

  9. Great progress and a really good idea to get the less interesting part done first!

  10. I love this one! It's already looking fabulous, that cork and the glow of the bottle neck, so cool.
