Mid week on a cold July night is as good a time as any to post my current efforts.
Tonight I can show around half of the Ireland band of my sampler UK Trip Book Cover. The left hand side is stone castle in three shades of grey and I grew weary of that so moved to the right hand side with its three to four shades of green! That's not a tree on the right - a stone St Patrick's cross is my guess and the green beyond is probably depicting the Emerald Isles? The row of shamrocks was tedious but is most effective and I do like the two spinning wheels. Sky, castle and yet more green remain. Then I move to Scotland which fortunately, has lots of my favourite blue.
This is a fun stitch on which I have upped the frustration levels by stitching over one. But I'm almost halfway done and there's a great deal of satisfaction in that.
Have a happy evening everyone.

It's looking good! Congrats on being so close to the halfway point!
I look forward to seeing the Scottish part Margaret. I don't know how you have the patience for over one is such quantity - I know that I would have given up, well done you.
Looks wonderful - and I particularly love those spinning wheels.
Oh, Margaret, how beautiful!
Margaret, I just found your blog...what a lovely piece you're doing for your trip book cover! I'm looking forward to following your progress. Who is the designer of the piece?
It looks gorgeous and it's really coming along. I love the detail that's added because you're stitching over one.
