In the last update from September, I was hoping that I would be able to finish another page of Three Boats. This is where Three Boats was at the time.
A week after our last update, I finished the 13th of 24 pages the following weekend. Oh, it feels so good to have more than half of the pages completed.
I have been continually stitching 100 stitches a day since then and this is where Three Boats is now!
Can you see that the palm trees are all completed! I am almost halfway through with this current page also. I believe I can complete it by our next update. A lot of the stitching is large swaths of one color floss. Wish me luck!

Wow! You are really moving along on this project. Having a goal for the number of stitches a day is really helping. Less confetti stitches too…
ReplyDeleteGail at the cozy quilter.
Wow- some great progress Cathie, this is really coming together beautifully 🥰
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteHooray for being more than halfway through the pattern! How do you keep track of 100 stitches, Cathie? That's not something I've thought to do, but it sounds like a good way to know you're making progress.
ReplyDeleteI like your idea to do 100 stitches a day. This is looking great :)
ReplyDeleteThat is huge progress Cathie, well done!!
ReplyDeleteI go weak at the knees at the thought of 24 pages ^^
ReplyDeleteMe too, but once you stitch a large piece for one child, you must do so for the other. This will be for my daughter as my son received a picture of the Golden Gate bridge many years ago.
DeleteIt feels good to me too that you are over half way, ha ha! That is an accomplishment and I am happy that you are seeing progress!
ReplyDeleteYou can imagine how good I feel about being more than half way.
DeleteYour stitching target is really working for you. Amazing progress again!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteHi Cathie: You have made great progress on this design, the palm trees remind me of Mexico, I loved traveling there for many years.
ReplyDeleteWorking 100 stitch's a day is a great idea.

Holy cow you got a ton stitched too! I was amazed at what Daisy accomplished but you really knocked this out of the park this update!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I am quite pleased with how this is progressing.
