Sorry for the late post. I had a busy 6th of September, one of our national holidays. There was some work to do at home and I almost died so I totally forgot about the weekly thread. Ah well, better late than never!

Have you progressed on your WIPs? How has your week been?

    I am taking a week off the Greenhouse. Nevertheless I finished the corpse flower!

    Also I have a new WIP - a kit that I got from a Babushka in Sofia for like 5€. It’s made of polyester and is surprisingly nice to work with.

      Was about to yell at you for being so fast but then I realised the pattern is printed on the fabric and not already all stitched up. Yeah I’m fractious today 😅

        Yeah I had a thing for stamped kits. That’s how I got into the hobby in the first place. Nowadays I prefer the traditional method but this felt like a cheap treat so I got it on impulse!

          I’ve never actually tried one but they do seem like they’d be a really good shout for those times when you want to stitch and not think.

    Didn’t get time for much recreational stitching this week, until quite late last night. So a day late thread works great for me :D

    I got back to work on this Ocean Wonder kit, after thinking I’d get it all done on holiday and then actually doing maybe 50 stitches that whole week. Sometimes a project is just bigger than it looks! 😅

    Did most of the whale during a LotR marathon a couple of weeks ago and now I’ve made some solid progress on the dolphin too, those are by far the two biggest bits so after that it should be plain sailing!
