Hawaii part 1

Last night, I finally finished part 1 of Chatelaine's Hawaiian Mandala.
That is a big center!  All the open black parts are for beads/cubes/bicones.  This will sparkle when I'm done!!  Hawaii is staying out for a bit.  I'm excited to move onto the pineapples of part 2.

Hawaii 4/23/18

Saturday night, I completed the top half of part 1 of Hawaiian Mandala.  This is so pretty!

Then I flipped it all over in the qsnap and started working on the other side.  This is my progress as of last night.

Hawaii

It's been a busy week and I almost forgot to post an update.

This is where I was Sunday.

Hawaii 4/9/18

Still making progress...this was yesterday afternoon when I had to move my qsnaps.


And this was the end of the evening.  All those empty spaces in the blue are for beads!

I made some nice progress last week and into the weekend.  Slow and steady!
Dang!  There's a couple missed stitches.

3/26/18 update

I guess my stitchy bug has taken a vacation so I've been bouncing from project to project trying to find one to catch my attention.

Here's where I left Blue Moroccan Lace.

 And I picked up Earth Song.  I am not in the mood for over 1 right now, especially on 25 ct Lugana.
Before:

 After.  I think I may have put in a couple hundred stitches.

When I went downstairs to dig through my WIPs I originally pulled Old European Sampler but I couldn't find the pattern.  So it became a choice between Chatelaine's Hawaiian Mandala and The Heritage Sampler.  Hawaii won out.  It has to be warm there, right?
Before: 

and where I finished last night.
