17 in 2017 April Progress

The weather has been glorious the past few weeks, and I have been Reading in the Garden whenever possible (in between weeding!)

This is my original list for Meridith's 17 in 2017 Challenge

http://emilyscupboard.blogspot.co.uk/2017/01/17-in-2017.html

I have made some progress by just focusing on a couple of projects.

No.13 Goldfinch Silk Shading Embroidery

 My Goldfinch is progressing nicely, except I think I need to revise his eye - he looks a bit sinister!



 No.15 Down the Rabbit Hole

 I am still slowly appliquéing the centre of this medallion quilt and really enjoying working with these bright colours :)


I have stitched some DJ Blocks - I am making this No. 18 on my list (I Know!)

    You might find the eye will settle down when the other stitching surrounds it!

    Love your Di blocks and down the rabbit hole, I don't think the eye looks bad at all, I think you have had great progress :)

    You are progressing nicely on all those pretty projects. Down the Rabbit Hole can't but make me smile and your DJ blocks are beautiful. Mr Goldfinch is rather marvellous, what pretty embroidery.

    You are making great progress on your list. Both of these projects take an exceptional and above average amount of time. Keep moving forward!

    Your embroidery and your applique are exquisite! Hey, at least you're plugging away at your DJ; I gave up a long time ago.
    Progress is progress, you're doing great!
