Three weeks have passed and it is again time for a stitch along update. The last time I posted a photo of Three Boats it looked like this:
I had hoped to finish the page I was working on by the end of July, but a short vacation for Hubby and me as well as watching the Olympics meant that I wasn't working on it. Then I figured I would at least finish the page by this post, but my daughter and her family came for a 5 day visit the first few days of August and well, the Olympics are still going on. This is how Three Boats looks now.
I have put in a some stitches this week and I am almost done with that page. The bright peach/orange color that I recently stitched goes on to the next page. Rather than have a hard line, I have been stitching into that next page. There are a few scattered stitches still in this page #2, but they will soon be filled in and I will be on to page #8. There are 6 pages across and 4 down. I am working in columns, so I almost have 5 pages completed.
This Stitch Along is hosted every three weeks by Avis at Sewing Beside the Sea who kindly sends us the needed posting reminders.

DeleteI really do admire your patience and dedication to this project. You did well to make so much progress this time.
ReplyDeleteBeing patient is the only way this very long term project will get done. I also spend the time listening to some of my favorite music which is very relaxing.
