Well I thought I was doing pretty well with this project until I took a photo of it just now. This is my first time charting my own project and it just doesn’t photograph as well as I would like.
Here is where I was 3 weeks ago:
And here is where I am now:
I still have all of the leaves to stitch and some sort of saying or verse at the top, plus a few other things.
Please have a look at what the other members of this fine Stitch-a-long are up to. We are all working on different projects and every three weeks we check in with our progress. See you in three weeks! -MM

it’s always a challenge to chart our own designs, and I think this is looking lovely

I love how you’ve given the tree a good solid place to stand! You’ll feel better about it, I’m sure, when the branches are less bare š

The fence detail is just perfect, and the flowers underneath make a great contrast. I bet they will look great with the fall leaves. The trunk may seem a little stark at the moment, but I think the leaves will balance it out in the end. I could never see the colors well enough to do this!

That’s a lot of progress. Are you deciding as your stitch or have you charted it before hand?

Great progress, I now see an almost completed tree trunk and grass, flowers and a cute little fence, that is most definitely progress in my book.
