I have worked on my Sistine Chapel this week. I finished page 2 of 347!!!! Love how it is looking! I find that once get started on a page I just can't stop. It is fun to stitch! The only thing I don't like, is that almost every symbol is a blended thread. If you are scratching your head on what a blended thread is, it is where you have one strand of two different colors that are stitched together. You can't use the loop start with this method.
I am working on a RR project right now for my friend Berly. This is surprise themed RR where you pick a theme and everyone who stitches picks a design they like. When you get your RR theme home, you are surprised at what everyone has stitched for you. She wanted everyone to stitch kitchen towels for her. I would love to show what I am stitching but it is a surprise.

I think you are very brave to do such a large project but it's looking fantastic.
It is looking great.
At first I read it as 34 pages. Then I fell of my chair when I realized it was 347!! Yay for you for tackling such a big project.
I remember blended thread from a Theresa Wentzler I did years ago...What a pain! But it's looking amazing so far! You ought to get your hubby to take a pic of you working on it with all the extra material draped around you! I just can't imagine!
Congrats on finishing your 2nd page of Sistine Chapel, it's so gorgeous though that chart.
Blended threads always look great. I have a lot of them in Dimensions Gold Collection designs. I'll be watching your progress for years and years and years. You're so brave!!
congratulations on page 2 being completed. It's beautiful, the colours really do work well together. x
