Third Mystery Part Done

I finished the third part of Tam's mystery on my German group on Sunday. Lots and lots of backstitching, but it's looking okay. I'm glad I picked the colors I did; they seem to go well with the design. It reminds me of the country feel of a lot of designs from the eighties and early nineties. Got the fourth part on Monday and am busily stitching on it.

Building Up

It's one of those weeks where you have to look closely to see progress, but I promise you it's there. Another building was started, and dark was added to one of the others.

Lots of Outlines

When I did the first part of this project, I didn't think there'd be all that much blackwork. I was wrong. It seems that each of the outer areas will be mainly blackwork, and that's what I did this week - lots of the same leaf pattern.

Knotted Up

I finished the major knot outline this week and started adding some bling. You can see, now that it's all done, the piebald effect of stitching the way the instructions said. It looks like individual tiles instead of a continuous line. I hope that's what the designer was going for.

Waves of White

Okay, so the picture looks a bit yellow, but I promise it's white. I did a lot of white back and forth this week. It's something I have to get used to with Mr. Michelin, but he still looks cute.

Zentangle Zebra

This second part of the zentangle flower looks like a zebra to me. I finished it off this week, but haven't taken a picture of it done. I'll be doing that tonight or tomorrow when the third part of Tam's mystery is done.

Round and Round We Go

I did a lot of Jessica stitches this week - all those pink ones in the middle. I also added some Algerian eyes to the outer area. It's coming along and I'm almost done with part one of three. Of course, the group ends at the end of the month. Think I'll catch up?
