Back to the Train

I feel really bad for neglecting poor Whispers but I really must stitch Train of Dreams.  I’m halfway through the penultimate page now which isn’t bad considering the amount of confetti stitches in the planets.  But they do look so gorgeous though, beautifully charted.

The next blog update for this piece should have a picture of this page finished (fingers crossed).  I’m hoping that as it gets to the end of the page there will be more blocks of colour.  I really enjoyed stitching all of that black after the last week on Curl Up where there seemed to be no end of colour changes.  I’m heading towards a framed picture of the wizard so I expect there will be a lot of detail there.  I’m beginning to think about frames now, I want something that looks old fashioned for this one.  I’ve been looking at some online frame makers and I might send them a snap when it’s finished to see what they recommend.

A couple of weeks before the next stitch along week I wonder if I’ll get onto the last page before then?  Faces of Faery 141 is trying to get my attention, as is Grumpy Cat.  As soon as I got out the camera to take a photo of the Train he jumps onto the back of the sofa to pose for the camera.  I think he needs to learn to say ‘cheese’.
