It’s chaos at home at the moment, chaotic and very dusty! This week builders have started on our kitchen/dining room so walls have been knocked down, steel joists put up…you get the picture! The dust gets everywhere!! I know I’ve been very quiet on here, I have been stitching a lot, but even my computer has been under dust sheets! I’ll do a few catch up posts over the next couple of weeks!
I hid my butterfly embroidery away so it wouldn’t get dusty too but last night I decided it was safe to get it out again!
Three weeks ago I’d just started this DMC kit…

I did manage to do a couple more letters before the building work started and last night I started the letter E…

I’m really enjoying stitching this piece, it’s pretty and delicate but not too complex to do.
This stitch-a-long is organised by Avis of Stitching by the Sea, we post our progress on a piece every three weeks, just enough to keep motivated! Please follow the links to see what everyone else is stitching.

I think this is the perfect project during the renovations! Short and sweet little bits that show project and still be put away quickly!

I love projects like this where you can have multiple mini-finishes. Kathy is right, it’s perfect for a period where you have to pick up and put away your work.

I feel for you having your kitchen done. I’ve been putting it off here for about 20 years LOL. Loving your delicate letters 🙂

So pretty and delicate. The dust and upheaval will be worth it in the end, just take sanctuary in your sewing room in the mean time
