It's been far too long since I spent time on Hogwarts (middle of March in fact) but, thankfully, I've finally managed another 10 hours and, as you can see from the pictures, THERE'S A TRAIN!!! Or at least a good portion of it.
As I left it back in March:
And now:
I did think about working up and stitching the clouds of steam first, but I couldn't resist starting the train any longer! Isn't it lovely to finally see the red?
During August I'd like to finish the train and get some more backstitching in. Now I've returned to it, there's no way Hogwarts will be neglected again; by hook or by crook, this will be a finish this year!
Take care,

Oh wow, it's been since March? I do love seeing the red and the train being added. So close to a finish!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to see this one back out. I know how much you love it. I don't blame you for not being able to wait any longer. I'm glad. That red is just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAwesome progress Rachel. It looks amazing.

When I saw your current picture, I thought you could probably finish it this year. Have you figured out how many more rotations it will take? I was waiting for the train to appear, too.
ReplyDeleteHogwarts is looking good Rachel! Love the train and it's little pop of color. Hope you get to finish it this year like you want and those other 62 WIPs don't jump out at you instead.
ReplyDeleteGreat job! Now for the train. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
ReplyDeleteYou started the train! The final destination must be near. It's looking so good.
ReplyDeleteI'm very happy to see Hogwarts make an appearance, and it looks great! So nice to have the train show up. Looks like 3, no more than 4 rotations should get this done?
ReplyDeleteThat looks so amazing!! Wow! And you're so close.
