It’s been an interesting three weeks. I was sick for the first two weeks of it. You would think with all that down-time, I would get a lot of stitching done, but sadly, my brain just didn’t want to work well enough to concentrate. However, I did get quite a bit stitched in the last week, so here it is.
Here is where I left off last time I posted:

And here is where I am now:

Almost all of the bottom half of the rose is complete, and now I have started on the last leaf of the bottom half.
I hope Helen is feeling better! I hear she has been sick as well. I think everyone has been feeling under the weather. The gloomy days aren’t helping, that’s for sure!
Next update is Sunday, February 12th. See you then! -MM

That leaf looks like it has a bunch of confetti stitching. I love the look of this rose. I am sorry you were ill for so long, but I am glad you are feeling better.

There’s some horrible flu-like viruses going around here too. So far we’ve been fortunate and not caught it. I’m pleased you hear you’re feeling better. I tend to work on my SAL project for the first week and then do other things (like knitting) for the other two weeks.
