I said that I will post regularly, though I was concentrating on stitching this so much, I was forgetting to post photos of this on my blog, silly me (lol)
Here are some photos of my progress.I stitched satin stitch for all around the square, and flowers are finished.
Now as you see above, I stitched only half stitch in the small square in yellow, it looked bad when I stitched cross stitch in that area somehow, so I'm leaving them at the moment...
Here are bugs appeared...You may know, I don't like bugs, so it was feeling quite yuk to stitch them, I know about myself so stitched flowers and bugs first!
When I saw the chart sample photo, I was thinking they are field peas (lol), but were not!
They are green caterpillars!! mmmm...
Geeee, grasshopper!I haven't been stitching their antennae and birds' feet yet.
And what colourful insects they are!Do they exist in the real life, such blue feet bugs???
I think I became tough than before to catch insects because for Tass, though...
whew, but they were gone, I only have to do back stitch for them!
And here is a photo of whole piece.I have to stitch spiders (it looks quite cute as they are very small...) before I forward into the square that I'm looking forward to stitch so much!
And also, "Buttonhole-Bar Stitch" that I have to search how to do.
But! I'm going to take a break for a while because I think I've got cold, not flu, though...
I think I did over work! :(
I'm looking forward to post next time with wonderful design!
Take care and have a lovely day!

What a pretty project, bugs and all. I think you will be pleased with it when you are finished. Good decision to stitch half crosses on the yellow, I think. Keep up the good work.
