It’s already time for a new update and I feel like I’ve been procrastinating. I was getting a little fed up with the spring dragon these last few weeks and had to pull another project out for a change. Nonetheless, still made some tiny progress on the dragon, reached the fourth and final corner of the border. Also been busy with parents visiting, and more house hunting which I’d really like to be over and done with before Christmas, but we’ll see!! // Deja l’heure d’une nouvelle mise a jour pour ce SAL et j’ai le sentiment d’avoir procrastine. Je commencais a m’ennuyer un peu de ce dragon et j’ai fini par ressortir un autre projet de mes tiroirs pour m’occuper. Neanmoins j’ai tout de meme fait quelques croix sur celui la, je m’apprete a commencer le quatrieme et dernier coin de la bordure. Par ailleurs, j’ai eu mes parents venus nous rendre visite l’autre semaine, et la chasse aux maisons s’avere rude. J’espere en avoir fini avant Nowel mais on verra bien !

well you’ve turned the last corner, so you’re on the home straight for the border!
Hope house buying proceedings go according to plan!
Let’s hope so 🙂
This looks so intricate and I love the colours.
Thank you. I find the pictures don’t even do it much justice, as it’s the kind of cross stitch that needs to be seen to be properly appreciated.
It’s very intricate and complex, so I can understand you needing a break from it sometimes, but you’re getting really close now.
Every now and then however I’ll binge watch a TV series and get through a lot which is quite satisfying as I want to put this project behind me now.
joli travail mais la chasse aux maisons est partout
bon courage
monique la bretonne
Merci !
The border is so beautiful…but looks so complicated to stitch, you’re so close now, sometimes it helps to have a little break though, come back re-enthused 🙂 Good luck with the house hunting!
It helps to have a break but I also want to have a clear conscience if I’m too start a new cross stitch project. I’ve been lining up a few as items on my wishlist and feel I have to focus my efforts on this one to deserve a new one. Thank you !!
It’s looking lovely. Great that you’ve turned that last corner. The border is almost there now 🙂
The border is looking fabulous. Enjoy the process and good luck on the house front too. It’s getting to that time of year when sellers will take houses off the market because they won’t want to move at Christmas time. Hopefully, you’ll be lucky and get moving quickly.
Thank you! Indeed it is but since we’re already in the process of buying. all we’re hoping is that it all pans out, and fairly soon. So fingers crossed !
Turning the corner must have felt so very wonderful! Hope the house hunting progresses too!
It was satisfying but the last side of the border is still quite daunting. On the positive side of things, once I’m past this, it’ll only be the dragon left which should be fun enough !
Bonsoir
Tu vas bientôt en voir le bout de ce cadre qui te donne tant de mal. Bonne continuation. Bonne soirée. Gros bisous.
Merci beaucoup ! Oui on y croit
I am always being tempted by all the other unfinished projects!
I know it’s a terrible habit isn’t it? I like to start more than I like to finish, and with unopened cross stitch kits in my stash I find it hard to resist!
Variety is after all the spice of life!
One border left! You’re so close!! Will you feel better about the project once the border is complete? Good luck on the house hunting.
Yaaay! I definitely will be happy once this border is done and dusted, all that is left after is the mother dragon which should be fun enough.
Very pretty
I think you have done a great progress and it´s ok to switch projects 🙂
It should be, it’s meant to be fun isn’t it? 😀 I’ll probably follow this project with the fairy once I’m done ( the fairy being the one I used to take a break from the dragon)
Such a lovely design, but I can understand the desire to move onto something else! Sometimes we get like that with our projects. Good luck with the house hunting, I hope it isn’t too stressful
Congratulations on turning the final corner! It’s lovely to see so much progress!
Sorry I have taken so long to get round everyone this time round. Your Dragon is looking great and I just love that beautiful intricate border.
