Jesus Wept Update

Well I was hoping to do more stitching on this last night.
Unfortunately, that never went anywhere.
So I am posting an update because my 3 day weekend had been productive.

I worked on this piece as well as picked up 2 different UFO's and put some stitches in those.

Not going to post a picture of them though as one .
The first one I was working from 20 years ago, has huge stains in it that I hope to get out ... not sure when they got in there but still hope it comes out. The other one is a piece for someone special that really needs to get done and find it's way home.

It looks magnificent! I can't wait to see the finished work. You must be thrilled to be doing this. Perhaps you can convince the man who gave you permission to do this to allow this pattern to be published and sold. You, as the pattern-maker could benefit from that deal! Plus, I know a lot of stitchers would want to do this. Great job!

Your progress on this piece is looking very good. And woohoo for you in working on the UFO's too. I've a good couple of handfuls of those at my house that need some attention one of these days too. As far as the stains, you can soak in Ivory dishwashing liquid, it may take a couple of times but just be patient. If this doesn't work, there is a paste type of substance you can purchase that will really briten things up and probably remove the stains as well. Good luck.
