A New Start
I have been making steady progress over the last couple of days. It's good to get back to speciality stitches again. This was charted for 34ct Cafe Au Lait Legacy Linen, but although I have a piece for another project I decided to go with 36ct cream Edinburgh linen. Obviously it will work out slightly smaller but that's OK with me. I have had a frogging incident already. I didn't read the chart properly and did all of it in back-stitching in the light purple colour. Read again! Back-stitching in light purple, Algerian Eye in light green.

Gorgeous! All of us have to reverse stitch from time to time. I know I can't be the only one! :)
