I went back to my Teapot on Thursday and for the first week since we started I actually enjoyed working on this design. I think it is because I finally did a whole lot all in one colour and the thing is finally taking some kind of shape...well teapot shape I guess.
I had a phot of Glendon Place's "Pretty Pumpkins" to share as well but as it is very blurry and there is not much there anyway I deleted it. This is another over one piece so even though I spent a lot of time on it last Friday the result is just a tiny blob. It didn't help that I had to rip a whole bunch out right at the beginning either. Ripping out over one work is tedious!!! . But today is Pretty Pumpkin day with Carmen and Colleen so after today I should have a bit more to show plus I will endeavour to take a n0n-blurry image and to not have to frog vast quantites of it either!
This week for some reason, I hauled out my Heart' s Content kit and did some work on it. As it is over one on 29 count linen, the progress is slow but I am enjoying it. I believe I am in the mood for it these days beacause it is all in one colour which cuts down on the decision making when stitching. I must be feeling overwhelmed or something to go to such lengths just so I don't have to be making decisions!!

I also did a bit of work on "It's good to be Queen" but really it was just some back stitching and some white so it wasn't enough to justify a picture. As a matter of fact it is probably the multicoloured Queen that I was escaping from when I jumped to my monochromatic Heart's Content pattern!

Teapot is looking great. It has taken shape since your last pic. I just love the over one Hearts Content. It looks so delicate and pretty.
WOW! Everything is looking GREAT :)
I am finding the Teapots an enjoyable stitch along. Can hardly wait to start the Cirque des cercles.
Lovely progress on everything! I especially like the looks of your teapot. It's really taking shape.
I love Glendon Place designs so I'm looking forward to seeing this one as well.
Wow, your teapot is progressing. Glad to hear Good to be Queen is still in the works. Heart's content is lovely too.
Your Tea pot is coming along wonderfully. Mine seems to be going slow. Actually everything seems to be going slow for me this week,
Your other pieces are so nice, Oh that over one. You amaze me!!!!!
Your Heart's Content piece is gorgeous! Wow! Love how your little teapot is coming along too!
