I have had another new start for 2013. I joined the Heaven and Earth Bulletin Board's 2013 Freebie SAL. The design I chose was the QS Literate Dragon as being the mum of two boys I thought this would be suitable for either of them when I eventually finish it. The first picture is what it should look like when it is finished.
This is my first week's progress. Not a lot compared to some I have seen on Facebook but I am quite pleased with it. It is stitched on 18ct magic guide 2 x 1. As it is a five week month this month I have decided to carry on with him for another week before putting him away until it is his turn again in my rotation.
Finally for today is my first Tusal report for 2013. I am quite concerned about the amount of orts in my jar because of the amount of confetti in my dragon I think I may have been a bit generous when throwing away my orts so I can see that I might have to get more threads for him if I keep going at this rate lol. If you want to join the Tusal, you can find out more at Daffycat's blog
Until next time, happy stitching.
Love Lesleyanne

That's a nice chart, very bright.
Nice progress! The design is really cute.
Great start! Looking forward to seeing more of him!
The colours are so beautiful in this design - cant wait to see more.
In my TUSAL, I have found I throw a lot more thread away than I thought too!!! xxx
Wow. That is going to be gorgeous when completed. It is so colorful!
Wow that HAED looks epic - good luck! :0)
You've made a brilliant start Lesleyanne.
Great pattern voor boy's and girls alike.
Happy stitching.
Hugs Yvon.
A great start on the sal. I am doing mystic garden and all the confetti is making it really slow going. I only have about 400 stitches in so far, a long way to go for me :)
Lovely work on your HAED, it has such beautiful colors! My New Years start was my first HAED and I'm loving each tiny little stitch :)
Love your new start Lesleyanne and you have made great progress.

Wow, great progress! I started a HEAD freebie years ago and never progressed past the corner, lol. Hello, UFO! ;)
Great choice for the HAED SAL Lesleyanne. I love Literate Dragon. Will look forward to updates on it.
pretty ORT too,so many colours.
Greta start, it is a lovely design
Great start! I am so jealous - I am doing the same one and wish I picked 18 count ... 22 count is driving me crazy. And you definitely have more progress. Well done!
Great start on a new project !!
Love your new start. He's going to be really cute. What kind of rotation schedule/plan do you use? Thanks!
That looks like a great start to me! Some day I'd love to use the Magic Guide fabric.
Lovely start Lesleyanne x
That's a great start and you're so lucky to have so much going on in that first corner instead of all the same colour!
You have a long project ahead!! hehhehe Nice start sweetie :D
