Last night I added a bit of stitching on the middle row of the border and started an angel.
She looks a bit like a cave man right now but she’ll look more angelic soon . . I hope.
My angels are going to be all different colors. Some are too light and the arms/wings blend in. The face is ok because it’s framed by the hair but I want their arms/wings to show too. Most any chart I do, if I’m going to stitch it, I want the stitches to show.
I’m also going to change the eyes because they all have black for their eyes. They all look a little ghostly to me if stitched in the colors shown but . . that’s just my opinion.
Today I’ll be working on my Sunday Stitch. It’s so hard to put Elizabeth Eyles down. I want to finish at least a few angels but . . that’s a project for Tuesday.

Are you still knitting and quilting? Looks like you’ve done some nice X-stitch projects lately.
