Update on B/W House

Wanted to post this before I went to bed. Not a lot done but with visitors at the weekend and then today I have been at the hospital with Mum as she had her first cataract op, I have not had too much stitching time. Still I have the first half of the roof done so I am quite pleased.
Tomorrow I am going to try and do row 26 of Heirloom Christmas so I am at the same starting point as Jane when we start on Saturday to do our weekend SAL. Once I have done that I shall move back to my rota and the next one is Gracious Era - ugh, not that I mind the design but its a Dimensions and I do find the charts so difficult to read so I never end up doing very much on it. Still as I always say a little is that much less to stitch next time lol.

Sorry this is so short but I really am wacked and its midnight already.

Your blackwork house is beautiful Helen. Know what you mean about those Dimensions charts though - not my fave either. Hope all has gone well with your Mum's eye op (((hugs)))

Thank you for the nice comments you have left on my blog.

Your blackwork house is looking great, and I have also enjoyed looking at your other stitching--all lovely! I will be back to visit again!!

Oooh, I love that blackwork house. It looks so complicated to stitch though.

I had my dimensions chart enlarged so each quarter is on it's own A3 sized sheet of paper. So much easier to read and work from, and I've been marking off each section with highlighter so I don't loose my place.
