Here is where I was last week, this was block 13 on Elizabeth Almond of Blackwork Journey's Save The Stitches blackwork sampler.
And here is where I am now:
I have done half of block 14 and half of block 16 which is the row across the bottom. When I've finished the pattern you can see I'm working on, I'll complete the metal thread stitching for these areas, then I need to move my QSnap to the right and carry on with blocks 14 and 16 and get block 15 done too. I'll take a picture of where I'm at then too. I seem to be averaging a block every 3 weeks so this is going to take me forever as I'm only half way through!

You're only halfway through?!! This is going to be the largest blackwork panel in the world! It is beautiful.
Keep holding on to the idea that it will be stunning when it is done!
It's looking lovely. I always find that if I make good progress and get a section of anything done 'under budget' I feel better about it, and the end seems closer. At least you are continuing to work on it so you must be making progress.
Wow, it looks amazing! I can't believe you're only halfway through - it seems huge already! :D
looking good ^^
Glad you have some company to keep to you going. You might be fed up with it, but I love seeing it
this might be taking a while to complete but it is truly worth every minute you spend on it a lovely piece of stitchery, I know Liz ill be thrilled with how it is coming along.
I do so love this design and seeing your progress on it every three weeks. Don't worry about the slow progress because it's going to look fantastic when it's all done!
This is beautiful - I wish I had the time for a blckwork project. :)
Well done on making so much progress this time. It's lovely. I'm looking forward to seeing the gold stitches too :-)
This embroidery is looking great! I like the metal thread stitches :)
