Stocking Treasure Dragon Update

Wow, has it really been two weeks already?

I started a new job where I am now working 12 hour shift work, so needless to say, my stitching time has suffered, but I've made good headway and have an update for you.

Reminder of what it will look like...






And the update.   I've discovered that working one grid at a time was beyond tedious, and I literally spent the majority of my time changing colors for one single stitch, so I am doing a line of grids at a time.   As you can see, it's going quite quickly.  I'm 80% finished page 2, and 20% done the project!

Of course this will get more difficult the lower down I travel, and I'm sure I won't be making such huge strides when I get down to the dragon's treasure, but as always, I will plug along slowly and steadily.

That's all for now!

    1. Thanks Sharine! I'm looking forward to doing more of the dragon and seeing the face appear. He's got such a smug/greedy little face, I love it!

  3. Are you going in line vertically or horizontally? I do a column at a time. I really love this. I look forward to seeing more.

    1. I'm doing a column horizontally. How do you do yours?

      So far I've found it waaaaay easier than than doing one color at a time (per page) or one 10x10 grid.
