I won’t show the progress on this every day but here’s what I have done as of last night.
It’s actually straight. It’s amazing how badly I can screw up a photo. I’ve changed up some of the colors. The “must be created” was supposed to be a goldy tan but I wanted it to be a bit darker so it stands out. Also the “Marriage” word took a lot of floss and I don’t think I’m going to have enough of that one. It’s one of the colors that’s hard to get so I’m going to add another color – probably an olive. That will give me five colors to use or the words so I shouldn’t run out of any color.
Today I’d love to finish that row and get two more done. That still puts me behind where I had hoped to be but . . it’s not a race so I’m just enjoying the stitching but hoping to stay focused and get it done.

Whatever I’m doing (cooking/quilting/knitting/embroidery, etc.) seems to take SO much longer than I think it should.
For the past year, I’ve been “trying” to finish several UFO’s and each one I pull out, I think I should be able to finish it lickety-split BUT, the progress seems SO slow. I have a feeling that’s why I have so many UFO’s. I get/got tired of working on them and just put them back in a bag to do “later”.
Your progress on this sampler is looking great!

I feel it’s not a race but a journey to enjoy and perhaps learn.
Carol says
Let me know what that floss is you are short on. I may have it! Happy to send if I do.
Julie says
I enjoy seeing your progress everyday! At least you’re making progress….wish I could say the same.

If it’s DMC you are short on, it’s likely I would have what you need. Will send if it is, let me know.
Nelle Coursey says
I love seeing your work in progress even if it is every day. This is going to be beautiful when it is finished. It has already started out that way!
Bon says
It’s looking great!
