The hardanger piece is coming along quite nicely. I am almost done with the kloster blocks and then on to the satin stitches.
Yesterday a couple of the ladies who go to stitch night, Helen and Connie, came over and we stitched the day away. I worked on PT. I don't know how much longer I can work on it before I have to go to something else. The combination of blended threads and quarter stitches are going to drive me up the wall pretty soon.
Thanks for stopping by!

PT looks wonderful Jan and the hardanger is really coming along.
That PT stitching looks really intense. Gorgeous work, but I don't know how you can persevere through it. I'm jealous!
As someone who has just finished a Wentzler design, I can only whole-heartedly support you on your "backstitching as you go" plan.
I also have paper bobbins that I use to store my blends on. I have a look to see how much of a blend I will be doing and then create several cuts of the blends, which I wind onto the "blend" bobbin. Anything to save time on a Wentzler is worth doing, in my humble opinion.
I hear you though, after a while of working on nothing but a Wentzler, it's enough to make you descend into a child-like tantrum of frustration. I understand. I SOOO understand.
Your hardanger is beautiful. One of these days I will attempt hardanger. (Or so I keep telling myself.)
Ooooh keep motoring through with PT its spectacular!!!

Your patience and perseverance with your Peacock is to be admired. It will be so worth it in the end.

Your PT is a monster challenge and your are doing great on it, but I love the Hardanger and can hardly wait to see more.
