What you see here is page 1 and 2 finished and page 3 nearly finished. Then the upper right corner is done.
Here's the chart showing what I have accomplished so far - everything in orange is the last few days.
Thought I might stick with this one for a few weeks. If I am able to keep this pace page 4 will be done in a week. That's a lot of blue - 3838, 3839, 798, and 824.
Have been working on the genealogy again - found some great uncle's families last night. Then I 'data mined' and found my nephews half siblings. Have you heard the phrase 'data mining'? My son threw this one at me last night. Think I have close to 1600 people in this family now - where does it stop?? Oh yeah, Adam and Eve!
Hope today finds you doing whatever it is that makes you happy!

Your stitching AMAZES me! Well done!
Had a photo of my great grandma's uncle's gravestone posted on Ancestry. Yesterday I got a note from a woman asking me where the stone is located and what info I had on he and his wife, who is her great grandmother.
Can't remember where the photo came from. But did give her the list showing her how I was connexted to the man's wife.
I noticed I had two yellow arrows on two people in this family tree. SO I checked them out . . yellow being direct relative.
FOund out ELizabeth, our mutiual relative is the sister of my great grandmother's grandfather . . . and her mother is Elizabeth's daughter.
FOund out my great grandmother's parents were FIRST COUSINS ! ! ! !
Guess that answers the question as to why I am a little off center . . LOLOL
Your new project looks great Denise. Good luck with the solid stitching.

Denise, it is beautiful, you are an extraordinary stitcher and I think you might be a bit insane! :)
I love it! I can see the lighthouse emerging! I can't wait to see more of the picture!Great job Denise.
Phew! That is a LOT of stitches done! Very nice!! I think finding double cousins was very interesting! And then there's the french tradition of naming all the children using a very small 'bas' of names (Jean, Marie, Pierre, etc...)so that it seems as if you are seeing the same person 25, 50 years later!! Plus the women did not take the husband's surname. Then the spanish/cuban ancestors have double surnames... Aack!! Hugs!
wow, you did a LOT in a short time...can I send a few projects your way!?!?!?!?
Wow! How many pages are there to this pattern. or did you intentionally leave this "minor" detail out??
Wow! That is some project! It is looking great.
WOW what a piece. Can't wait to see more.
