Another Block Two Update

Haven't picked up Christmas at Hawk Run Hollow since last April, so I am pretty excited to see some progress on this piece. Block Two is taking FOR-EEEEEEEVVVVVVEEEEEERRRRRRRR. 42 rows of stitching 'snow' has me about half up a tree. I've decided to make a deal with myself that with every thread stitched on Block Three, I stitch two thread lengths of the Mint Frost in Block Two. That way, I am not bored to tears, and it gets taken care of. 


Here are the 'deets' as they say: 








Fabric: 40 count Picture This Plus Cashel linen in Legacy



Fibers Used: Needlepoint, Inc. silk flosses in 123, 124, 127, 128, 155A, 158, 159, 184A, 186, 204, 206, 241, 242, 244, 251, 293, 303, 313, 316, 331, 345, 401, 422, 473, 475, 512, 523, 524A, 526, 527, 548, 556, 587, 623, 636, 671, 692, 693, 694, 695, 722, 724, 725, 765, 767, 856, 867, 871, 902, 912, 928, 951, 957, 963, 972, 976, 982, 987, 991BB, and 993. The Thread Gatherer's Silk n' Colors #035 Mint Frost.
