A Finish

So I have finally finished the first of a set of 4 pictures which I have been doing on holiday. They are enjoyable to do with their bright colours and the right mix of block and scattered stitching. Not too taxing for stitching on holiday. On this holiday I've been waking up about 5 am every day so I'm able to get a couple of hours in before the others get up and it gets too hot to stitch.  

This is the fantastic view I have while stitching 

Overlooking the hotel pool and the fantastic carribean sea. And here's my finish. 

Holiday Stitching

Well I'm back onto a piece I haven't touched since my last holiday in August 2014. I continued with the piece on the train from home to Londons Kings Cross. It more difficult than I thought stitching on a moving train but I managed somehow. I picked it up again upon arrival and realised I've used 2 shades of white and it's very noticeable. I refilled my thread card with B2500 which was the number I've written on but now I've seen the difference I remembered I actually used Blanc. A simple and basic mistake but we all make them. I'm so cross with myself for not changing the thread number on the thread card. The difference is noticeable but I might leave it. 

If you look closely you can see the top couple of lines are a different shade of white then the rest of the White
