Yesterday was tuesday so I was working on my Nature’s Home Afghan. I stayed at home with Jóhanna Brynja again and could stitch a little more than usual. I promised you all a picture of the whole afghan to show you my progress, it will come in the end. Here is first a picture from last week.
And this is how far I got last night. I couldn’t quite finish the block, I still have 6 more leaves to do before it is finished so that will have to wait until next week. Last night was filled with thread change and confetti stitches but I really enjoy my Tuesday evenings working on my afghan.
The picture below shows you how much is done already. The blocks are 30 in total. I have finished 7 blocks already and the 8th block is almost finished. So I still have quite much left to do. The tree has got 4 more blocks left to do and I plan to finish the tree before I move on to the birdhouses.
I decided to use a 14ct Aida for this project, I have never stitched on an afghan fabric and saw this project stitched on the same Aida that I am using and loved it that way. If you are wondering how this afghan will look like when it is finished you can visit Erla Björk on her blog to see it. She has already finished her afghan and it is just stunning. Click here to see it.
Wednesday – Saturday I am going back to stitching my rotation projects. Tonight I am continuing with Lizzie Kate Blocks Flip-It and I plan to finish the 10 hours on it tomorrow, I’ll show you a picture when it is done. I think this routine is working fine now that everything is back to normal after Christmas.
I wanted to remind you of my PIF – you can read about it on my last blog entry. I have got one participant but need two more. I am looking forward to have you visiting me again, until then, take care and I hope you have a wonderful day.
I love both: afghan and one large piece of fabric.
You are doing great !!! 
I love that afghan – I really want to stitch one for myself – need to find a design I like!
I can never get enough looking at this afghan. You are doing fine Edda. Keep it up!
WOW that is going to be so beautiful, i vote its Tuesday UFO every day for a while so its stitched up fast LOL
Great progress Edda, no wonder you love to stitch on it.
Your afghan is looking lovely Edda. You seem to gets lots stitched each Tuesday as it’s growing quite quickly.
I am heading off to the PO in a minute to post your chart:)
This is going be so beautifull . It’s more nice than on the originale fabric . I started mine in 2006 i think but now i’m in the mood again for stitching on it . I hope i can finish this year . I found a group who all stitching this afghan on a SAL and whe are making one block a month . But i hope i can do more . I want to start in september with an other afghan . Rainforest afghan .
Hello from Diedersdorf (near Berlin in Germany)
Your Afghan looks very nice. I’m also stitching it. I’m working at the red birdhouse on the left side.
Next tuesday I’ll show a picture on my blog.
