I have twenty two count coming up.mdgtjuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06665956958250175869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7272359789250175552.post-16584188918763402922011-09-13T19:27:14.187+01:002011-09-13T19:27:14.187+01:00some are around the butterfly ( ie. the middle bit...some are around the butterfly ( ie. the middle bit of the butterfly) i sat with about 16 colours next to me, i had already done 3, and as you can see their is still a few to do.but its not to bad :D lovely break after about 3000 black stitches lolmcewan07https://www.blogger.com/profile/11192499420624206670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7272359789250175552.post-4756359355432270012011-09-13T18:59:37.408+01:002011-09-13T18:59:37.408+01:00Wow, a brilliant restart =) Your stitching looks g...Wow, a brilliant restart =) Your stitching looks great? 20 colors in that butterfly?

And i am missing doing it all ready. on once was innocent all i have is blocks of lilac shades ( wish i were doing tent now ) :S And its ( once was innocent) is on 27 count so although it looks nicer its annoying me having to get to grips with smaller squares, and by the time im used to it ill need to go to the bigger holes again. :S<br />Oh well it doesn't matter.mcewan07https://www.blogger.com/profile/11192499420624206670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7272359789250175552.post-69570699734272231482011-09-13T08:18:46.098+01:002011-09-13T08:18:46.098+01:00LOL @ training the kids!!
