WIP Wednesday - End of Monochrome May

I hope everyone has had good weekends! Last weekend was Memorial Day in the U.S. and we took a trip to see some friends. Fortunately DD travels really well in the car since this was a 9 hour drive each way. That did allow me to get some stitching done and I brought along Reflections of Canada to try and get it finished by July 1st! 

 Here's where it was at our last check-in:

 and after a long weekend:

 Almost done!! About 3/4 of the way there. I'm about to work on it a little more tonight before bed and then I will put it down for a bit and work on something else. This will definitely come back out in June and hopefully have a July 1st finish! I plan on working on it for my 3rd and 4th weeks of the month, so that should leave me plenty of time. 

 I'm stitching this on 25 count ivory Lugana with Jodyri Ruby Slippers 2 over 2. The top photo has more realistic colours. 

 Happy Stitching!

    Tiff this is absolutely fantastic!!! I love the color you have used and lugana is great to stitch on.
    How big will it be when it is done? I get a kick out of the hockey sticks. I have a nice mug from Canada that has hockey sticks on it and it is one of my favorites. We became big fans when we lived in St. Louis and watched the St. Louis Blues. Can't wait to see this when it is all done. RJ @stitching friends forever 2

      Thank you! Some of it was at our friend's house as well, they're good friends and don't mind when I stitch while we're all watching TV, etc. :)
