I apologize for the quality of this picture. It is not easy to take decent photos of this project.
I finished another page of Summer Ball by Sandy Littlejohns last week. I started working on the area to the left of the girl in the yellow dress in February, but when I got a job and my depression kicked up badly, I put it down. I picked it back up at the end of April, but it's been up and down since then. I decided that, this was going to be my focus piece for the rest of 2018, starting July 1st. I did decide I can work on small pieces if I am working on them on break or at lunch at work, but this MUST be the focus. I MUST GET this done. It is too beautiful to keep sitting in a box, unfinished, with random body parts started and not finished. I am at the halfway point now. Actually, after this morning I have about 1000 more stitches completed in it, but this is the closest pic to it. I am working to the left, and at least this section is a lot of background and it goes fairly quickly. At least for being a 10 inch wide section.

Rachel, you have made good progress on this piece. I am here cheering you on. You can do it!
That is a beast...and far too pretty to sit in a box, you're quite right! Your plan to finish it sounds good. Sorry to read you have depression. Me too.
Rachel, this is stunning. Your needlework is simply amazing.
