day 2!

The most difficult thing so far about this 2012 stitching challenge is deciding which piece to do each day! I know some of the participants wrote out lists so they'd have an order, but ... I didn't, clearly.

Today's choice was a lovely peacock cushion in beautifully bold colours.



Isn't that gorgeous? And it's all whole stitches and NO backstitching! And, if all goes well, I will actually finish it some time before the end of the year. Although... I didn't get a whole lot done today, so not really the most auspicious start...



What can I say? I got distracted by the Sims 3! :)

    I know, right? I was practically salivating when I found this pattern -- it's in a magazine; I'll tell you guys later exactly where, but it's at least a year or 2 old. I need to find some equally beautiful fabric to finish it with.

    That's a beautiful peacock! How nice that there is no backstitching or fractional stitches either.
