In A Just Nan Mood

Not a lot to say but I do have a couple of WiPs to show. Been working on two Just Nan designs at a steady pace so I'm happy. Thank you for your encouragement regarding my last post. I understand stitching can't be forced but it sure can be frustrating when you have the desire but not the patience. LOL!
Anyway, first up is Queen of the Needle. It's been more than a year since I started it. It was going fine until I got stuck on these blasted flowers.
I gotta tell ya, he countless colour changes sure ain't fun. I'm so grateful I'm finally done with them. One more band and beading left until it's finished.
The other project I've been stitching is High Hopes. Not a whole lot done on it but enough to warrant a picture, I guess :)
Stitched on a 28 count Silkweaver solo opalescent lugana, this one's intended as a gift for my best friend, Adeline though when she'll actually receive it remains to be seen. Hehe...
That is all for today. On a side note, have you seen the newest Mirabilia 2009 Cherub freebie?
I think she's sweet.
Till next time, happy stitching, all.

These are both exquisite! Doesn't it feel good to be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel on the Just Nan piece?
