Elegance of the Orient Update

I am managing to progress slowly with this piece. The flowers in her Kimono are proving to be quite time consuming. I was hopeful that I might finish this for the next YOTA post at the start of Feb., but I doubt that will be the case.

Dimensions Gold - Elegance of the Orient

I decided to take a bit of a break from stitching the flowers and moved onto some of the green half crosses below her. Also there is a colour error in the large flower I have stitched that I will need to fix. Unfortunately I can't remember which one is the incorrect colour so I will have to wait until I have stitched the second flower. Then I will have to frog and re-stitch.

I am hoping to have more progress on this to share with you all for YOTA the first Saturday of the month. Sign ups are open all year for YOTA so if you are interested in joining in I would be delighted to see your progress. Head to the tab at the top of the page and sign up.
