Got to add a bit more 'not blue' this week. But one particular bit of peachy-terracotta got pulled out and put in twice! Why, you may ask? The pattern is apparently making use of the same symbol in two ways... One filled in and one empty.. Next to each other!! And of course I thought I was stitching the only one there!! It feels like a very lazy thing on the part of the pattern development team, and this particular one has done the same for multiple symbols. Grr!!
Although I look forward to seeing the pattern grow, in traditional style it has not been as easy or straightforward a stitch as it appears to be. On the plus side... No backstitch, so when we're done, we're done!! But that's a lot of weeks in the future now though, not even sure if we'll be done on this one by Christmas!

Great progress, it is always nice to have other colors to work with, sometimes I get bored with the same color thread.

Those are pretty shades, even if they were stitched twice!
