Japanese Octagon Box

And the latest on this one - haven't really done much on it recently.

Still on the first panel for this one:

And the little bit of progress on this - definitely not going to make it by the finishing class at the end of the month:

Here is my latest progress on this:

I've made a bit of progress on this - inspired by the fact that the finishing class is at the end of March. Somehow I don't think I'm going to have it finished for then.

Again - an overdue pic - not that it looks like much:

The first few stitches taken last night.

I stopped because I decided I needed to get a frame for it as there was too much fabric to hold as I'm doing all the pieces on one piece of fabric.

Finally a scan of the fabric:

Much better than the photos but still not perfect. Best I'm going to get though.

I got the fabric back for this yesterday. I got it custom dyed as I didn't want to use Belfast and didn't like any of the 32ct evenweave colours. Here is a not very good picture of it. It's really a sort of 211 purple with clouds of blue.

This is the best photo I have so far. I'm going to try scanning it too, to see if that turns out beter.
