Over the past 3 weeks, 784 stitches were added to my Heaven and Earth Designs Storykeep Effects of Caffeine cross-stitch project. You may see an image of Randal Spangler's artwork that this chart is based upon here.
This finished another full row of the chart. Progress through June 8th is pictured here.
In 4 more rows, I will begin the dragon!
Page 2 is now 41.47% complete. (It was 28.81%.)
The project is now 37.75% complete. (It was 34.44%.)
This is how it looked in my last update.
The spine of the book reads:
INVESTIGATING
THE EFFECTS OF
CAFFEINE ON
THE MIND

Joining the Stitch Along (SAL) organized by Avis at Sewing Beside the Sea has been a great motivator for making progress on this piece. If you are interested in joining, there are more details on her blog. See the first link below.
I do hope you will visit the other bloggers participating - links are listed below. We are all working on different projects. We are also in different time zones, so if a SAL update has not been posted yet, please check back in a few hours.
Thank you for visiting!

It's looking lovely Renee! I am excited to see the dragon!! Hope you're enjoying a lovely weekend! Christine xx
Coming along very nicely. I bet you can't wait to start the dragon.
Great progress! Any time I can see a difference with my untrained eye, I think you have done well. =)
Yay, looks great Renee and I can't wait to see that Dragon growing! x
Yah for getting this close to working on the dragon. That will be your reward. Lovely stitching, Renee.
Great progress and looking so good!
I am so intrigued by this project. I want to see this Dragon :)
Delicious coffee and cross stitch is a great combination for a relaxing time.
The details of this design are so intricate, little happy dance for when the book is done :D you're making so much progress !
Gorgeous progress! Can't wait to see that dragon of course.
Great progress! I'm anxious to see the dragon evolve!
Thank you Claire, Avis, Jenny & Jocelyn! I am very excited to see the dragon appear. His hat (sleeping cap?) should show up in my next update!
