The seventh part of Herz Rot Weiss from the Marquoir group is started.  I truly love these colors.  It looks sophisticated with the tracery.  I'm behind, but I'll get it done.

Squared Up Again

All four squares from this part are done!  Now to try to catch up a bit more...

More of the Mystery

I worked more on the German Group Mystery this week.  I love this color combination.  For some reason, it reminds me of antique things.  Anyway, I made quite a bit of progress on part five, even though I didn't quite finish it.

Another Part Down

The thirteenth part of See the Stars is complete!  Another bit down on the stitchalongs.  I just hope to catch up closer some day.

Two Squares of Four

This week I managed to finish off two of the four squares and make a good dent in the other two.

Taking the Fifth

I started the fifth part of the German Group Mystery this week and moved it down below the other set of "flowers".  I did this because the first part of the chart didn't indicate where it was, so I started in the middle.  It was actually the bottom row, so to ensure I have room for the whole design, I'm moving the interstitial motifs to the bottom.

Starting the Center

I finally started the center square of See the Stars this week.  It was released in January, so as usual, I'm behind.  On the other hand, this square is going fairly quickly.

Starting Four More Squares

I've started four more squares on the Kaleidoscope Mandala. 

Graphic Sampler Done

I finished my graphic sampler this week.  Now to do some finishing around the edges and it'll make a nice little doily.

Back to the Stars

I've restarted See the Stars.  I'm now officially two and a bit parts behind.  I seem to keep stitching slower and slower...

Graphic Sampler Start

Yes, this is a lot further along than most of my starts, but it's all been done this week.  The graphic sampler is a stitchalong from Marquoir, and it ended this past week, so... in order to stitch it at all, I have to hurry up!  Five blocks out of nine done, I think I'll make it.  I changed the original colors, too. 

Sixth Square

Sixth square done, I'm only eight behind... on the other hand, I really do like the combination of threads and fabric I picked for it.

Twenty Parts Done

I finally finished the part of the kaleidoscope mandala I was working on.  It took a lot longer than usual.  I don't know if it was because it was so much more stitching or if it was because I was busy with Carnaval.  Anyway, twenty squares done and a lot more to go.

A Long Scope

There were five squares in this part of the mandala, so it's taking me a long time to complete it.  I think this is the longest, so far, I've taken on any part of the stitchalongs with Marquoir.  Even though this picture was taken last Saturday, I am still working on it today.  Granted, I've made a lot of progress, but still.  I hope to have this part finished by the time pictures are taken Friday night or Saturday.

Kaleiding Again

I've started working on the Kaleidoscope Mandala again from Tracey Horner with Marquoir.  This time I have five squares to complete, so it's going to take a while.  It's still looking pretty good, I think, and people who see it in person really admire it.

Last Part of the Alphabet

The last third of the alphabet is done, as is part four.  It looks good, I think, but now I have to wait to stitch part five until I am done with the other stitchalong parts.

Twelfth Part

Got the twelfth part done this past week.  I'm only a month behind now.  Catching up ever so slowly!  These are pretty big parts to stitch, and take quite a while, but I really like the piece.

And on to the Next One

I finished up See the Stars and went on to my next Marquoir stitchalong this week - the German Group Mystery by Kelly Searles.  In this picture, I'd just worked on it one day.  I think I'm now rotating through things faster than they're coming out, at least!

Purple Finish

I finished the Weihnachtsmysterie!  It's not getting made into anything yet because my sewing machine is broken, but all the stitching is done.  Thank you, Tam, for making this pattern available to the Marquoir group!

Another Part Done

Three more squares done on the Kaleidoscope Mandala.  I think I'm actually beginning to make ground on it versus how many squares have been released.
