Okay I am on a roll I think. I have had the said camera out and I have so far been able to upload the pics onto the computer. Lets see how it works out to get them on here. LOL
This is the progress that I have made on St Sofia. The colour of the fabric hasn't come out as well as I would have liked. It is called Nasturtium. It is one of my hand dyes. The mistake is around where the needle is. I am going to see Marilyn Campbell on Friday so I will pull it out then and continue on. I have only the border around the middle to do and then I am complete. So over a quarter of that stitched. It is a big stitch but not hard.
The next Photo is of the progress of The Vierlanden Mystery that I
am part taking in. I am a tad behind as I only joined at page 27. I have almost completed page 3. I am bringing in a red colour to compliment the black. I am really enjoying the stitching on this piece. I am stitching it on a Permin (I think) maybe 28 count. I really can't be bothered counting it to see and it will easily fit on the piece of fabric.
Thirdly this next photo is of the Long Dog's St Sylvestre. I have only just started this one. It is on black 28 count. I think it is a Jubilee as it is a more open weave than Jobelan. I like it anyway and it is not all that difficult to stitch on. The thread is a silk of Jo's. Dinky Dyes I mean. Not sure of the colour. I must look. Will up date this later.

WOW! Janine - I've not seen St Sofia before...I wonder why.....it's lovely and I am sure I would have remembered it!
Vierlander looks fabulous and so does the St Sylvestre....I'm really enjoying my Long Dog too :)
Tannia, I forgot to say this is a Papillon Creations design. Yvonne's designs are gorgeous and such a joy to stitch.
You have wonderful progress on all three WIPs - St. Sofia is gorgeous! Well done on all! If this is your first Long Dog, be warned; they are like potato chips and cats - you can't have just one :)
Janine, your St Sofia is really beautiful, as well as your Vierlande SAL and your LDS. I have yet to start my Vierlande, I have to finish LDS Bienvenue first which is almost done.
Then I will be SALing along with everyone else.
WOW Janine, I love he Long Dog piece. You have chosen a lovely thread to stitch with on the dark fabby. Nice one!!
Vierlanden is also looking fab!
Really love the stitching Janine - such gorgeous colours!
