There's still Saturday and Sunday for me to work on Rejoice Evermore before switching over to Prairie Life Sampler on Monday. What I've done this week is work on that band at the top and fill in at last part of the flowers in the top part of the border.
Somewhere in this chart, there are Algerian Eyelets, Smyrna Crosses and Satin Stitches. When I was working on this probably a year or more ago, I started the satin stitches beneath the big flower on the right and I thought they looked awful but now, I'm thinking they don't look so bad. I'm not sure I've ever done Algerian Eyelets or Smyrna Crosses so we'll see how that goes.
Saturday and Sunday I will finish what needs to be done in the band above the satin stitches, then work on the stitching between those two horizontal lines above the Rejoice Evermore verse.
I'm also not sure I've ever stitched 1 over 1 but the verse is stitched that way. It wasn't horrible but it was a bit tedious on 40 count linen.
