Still Life with Parrot, 3

Thank you, everyone, for the wonderful kind words about our engagement photos. I have 10.5 months of planning left so crossing fingers. I was supposed to call the florist today and I didn't. I'll have to call them tomorrow. Either way, I'm super stressed out (mostly because of school) but hanging in there. Not much stitching done, but here it is anyway.

Before:


After:


This one is actually a really quick stitch. It's on 18 count and also there are only about 3,000 stitches per page versus my usual 7,000. However, making Christmas gifts has significantly slowed my progress. That and the fact that my to do list always seems to grow and never shrink, no matter how much I've actually gotten done. I'm whining, I know.

With that, happy stitching everyone!

Progress is progress, no matter how small it is =) I love how the different shades of brown melt into each other =)

I know how you feel about stress and school and so on, but I will get better and I hope you will sooner than later find time to relax and do some stitching =)

Looking good Ewa, and good luck with all the wedding plans. Don't stress too much stunner. It will all work out.
