Well, I got my ten hours finished on the vintage German Needlepoint "Alter Bauernhof / Old Farmhouse". It's getting down into the fiddley bits now, with more trees and bushes and the start of the farm buildings.
As usual, a picture of the back so you can actually see what is covered in yarn and what is still paint 😉.
I finished the roof on the house, the church walls and got a good start on the barn (the roof and all the timbering is finished). When I pick this back up in the next rotation, I'll finish off the barn walls and work on the lilac tree over on the left side by the farmyard. I've been kind of putting it off since it's got all four of the greens and lots of confetti scattered stitches; when I had that combination on the trees by the church, it was NOT FUN. But it will fill in a nice chunk of that side of the piece, and the rest of the bushes will seem easy!
And where I was at the end of the last rotation as a comparison.
Next up starting today is the "Violet Needleroll". I'm hoping to get it done, if not FFO'd, during this rotation.
And an FFO - the
Rib Scarf is done! (link to Ravelry page). It ended up five inches wide and VERY squishy due to the broken rib pattern. Length is just short of 80 inches - nice and wrap-able. I recommend this pattern; it's easy to memorize and makes a very nice unisex scarf
Linking up with the SSS crew. (
Current round up here.)
Nice scarf! It looks very cozy for a cold day. Your tapestry piece is beautiful. I can see why those confetti stitches in the lilac tree will slow you down a bit. Enjoy finishing your next project! Gail at the cozy quilter
