Another Mediterranean Squares Update
Sunday, April 19, 2009 at 03:40PM I have been hearing about snow and lot's of rain in other parts of the country but here....today...it is beautiful. No fog and 69 degrees. I'm inside today but hoping for a nice today tomorrow for a trip to Stow Lake to see the baby Herons. Stow Lake is in Golden Gate Park so it's only about 2 miles from me. Everyone should be back in school (after spring break) so it should be rather quiet over there. This little lake also has pedal and electric boats or rent.....if you get out this way.
But back to the update for the Mediterranean Squares........ I have been stitching on it most evenings but you are probably surprised at how little I have to show for it. It seems I put in three threads and take out one, then add two more. So things do move slowly. I have decided the darkest red in the partial square at right is too dark, so it's coming out tonight and a slightly lighter red is going in there. I like the way the square, at the lower right, turned out....and it went pretty much according to plan. Oh, but I almost forgot, I've ordered a replacement thread for the row square single row of Mosaic stitches in the small center square....as the white just seems to bright now. Sometimes it takes almost to the end before little items like this show up!
So, as you can see, this will almost finish up the larger squares. Then there are three small squares to finish and the border.
I will be away on a teaching trip from April 24 to 30th so I won't be making a blog entry during that time, nor taking my stitching with me, so will resume stitching soon after my return.
Hope to see you here around the 1st of May.
