I got a new LED bulb for the task light that sits over my recliner and it’s nice and bright. It’s made working on the butterfly cross stitch MUCH easier.
As you can see, I’ve completed the outline on half of the butterfly. I really want to start putting in all the colours, but I’m going to stick with red for now and do the other side. This is just incase I have to set the project aside for a while – I won’t be lost when I come back trying to figure out which colours I used.

I don’t think I could stitch on the black fabric, but that is going to be stunning!

Oh, wow….that is really pretty. Those broken lines in those wings would have made me crazy. I would have never gotten them to line up.
