I have been working on the middle leaf and the unripe/faded strawberry at the top...
....and suddenly, the end seems so much nearer than I was thinking! This design does have some back stitch, but not too much....how exciting (for me anyway!!!)
Suddenly I feel a renewed sense of vigor for getting this completed :)
Another project that is on my to-stitch list is this one from The World of Cross Stitching magazine...
Although this design is in this months issue of The World Of Cross Stitching which just popped through the letterbox (actually it was popped into my mail box as we don't have letterboxes here in New York!!!) I could have been stitching this one a while ago as I've known about this for quite a few months..... it's one of my designs! I love how the team at the magazine have finished off the stitching....the wooden spoon hanger is just perfect, don't you think?
And I have to share with you the mystery of the vanishing tomatoes! I have a couple of tomato plants outside on the patio, but the tomatoes kept disappearing! I would be watching for the tomatoes to ripen, anticipating the days that they would be ready to eat, but then many of them seemed to just disappear! And then I noticed this....
Well, at least he's eating healthy!
Until next time....happy stitching!
