Theme-a-licious Check In - Jubilee July
Here is my progress on the first couple of my rotation projects
First up was Hillside Samplings 'A Stitch In Pine' This project had moved on a lot since I last shared a photo as I'd kept it out upstairs and put a few stitches in when I had a couple of minutes. This time I picked it up I finished the last tree, the four sided stitch and the alphabet.
Then I picked Juda Hale in Minature back up and I have finally finished the (over one on 35 count) eyelet alphabet! I'm so glad to have it done as it was a major PITA to stitch. I left the needle in the photo to give you an idea of the scale of this project.
I'm also making good progress on the jumper the sleeves are knitting up very quickly, I'm over half way up the first already.
In other news there was a very special event last week as a certain small boy turned three!
I will leave you with a snap of my cornflowers, I was very glad to see that I'm not the only one enjoying them!

Happy birthday to Christopher!
The Stitch in Pine looks lovely. You're a brave woman to stitch that sampler over one on 35 ct!
Enjoy your cornflowers - I love them too.
Happy Birthday to your son :)
Congrats on your miniature! Nice to have it finished. I know what you mean by PITA! It was downright painful at times whrn I was working on My Beloved!
Can Christopher really be three already?
That is a lovely picture of him :)
