Cramer’s Blue Morpho
This is the second of about nine possible Wee Beastie bugs that I have. I think it turned out pretty swell.
I have begun set up for the next project. This is the taped together chart that came in a 19 page booklet. The chart is, thankfully, bigger than the finished piece.

And if that’s not enough of a chart, here’s some more:
This is the detail chart for the words on the bigger chart.

Your finished project looks great!
But I can’t believe you are going to tackle that monstrous one. I remember looking at that on a website somewhere and really wanting to do it.

Good stuff. [Have to break the female commenting streak.]

[...] So as you know from here and here, I’ve been working on a rather large cross stitch project. I predicted here that in six months I’d move on to a smaller project. It’s been four and here I am movin’ on. I decided that I wanted to do something for the baby’s room, not because I was bored with the dragon, that’s an acceptable excuse, right? [...]
