March IHSW

While I didn't have as much time as I usually do for IHSW, I am very pleased with my progress on Chatelaine's Winter Watergarden.
Here's where I started on Saturday:


And here's where I ended up Sunday evening:
Chatelaine's Winter Watergarden
Stitched on 32-count White Belfast with recommended fibers and beads
There are filling stitches in the upper right hand portion, inside the outer blue line but it is really hard to see.  The blank spaces in the center arches and points will be filled with beads, algerian eyelets and rhodes stitches.  There will be a snowflake in the very middle.

You are inspiring me to stitch a Chatalaine design. I will be following your progress with great interest.

Another very pretty Chatelaine design. I adore her designs but I don't love stitching them, I don't know why. So my admiration goes out to everyone who stitches one of them.
