I'm again joining Susan over at Blackberry Creek for the UFO (Unfinished Objects) Bust. Although I can't cross anything off my list this week, I've made excellent progress! Here's an updated picture of the Bread X-Stitch...
Last week there weren't as many breadsticks in the canister...in fact, I hadn't even stitched the canister! And there's an extra loaf of bread there which wasn't there before. I've stitched for hours and hours! Hopefully, I can cross this one off before next Friday's progress report and begin on another item on the list...it's actually been fun!

That is very pretty! What are you going to do with it after it's done being stitched?

I know you aren't fond of the colours Deb but I think it's lovely and you've made progress since last week! As you know I am still learning: what is the wooden frame called please? I know the round ones are hoops. Can you see this well enough to sew at night or do you use a special light? I'm looking at lighting options for night time sewing although the days are long now.

Great progress! I enjoy cross-stitch. I've done much lately, but there is something very relaxing about making all those X's with thread.

It looks great - well done on your progress on it!

Applause!! You're doing well! Have you considered adding some cross-stitch border in a favorite color to this piece so you like it better? If you plan to frame it, a mat in your favorite color would set if off nicely.
I join Rose in wondering what the name of that helpful frame is. Please tell.
Cheers!
