From this to this….

 My good friend Fiona always used to remind me to “read the instructions”.  She was correct!   I have had to undo every last stitch of this piece and will start again.   One thread of floss on 32 count linen taxed my eyesight but the “reversing” is now done.

From this


To this

So now to begin again and this time follow the instructions!

Oh wow! Brave lady, but it will be worth it in the end.

Oh no! I hate to have to unstitch. Reading the directions is good advice, and I will try harder to do it.

Oh no what a pesk, but worth it, you'd never be happy with it otherwise.

Oh my goodness....cannot imagine the patience and effort it took... You
will better appreciate the final piece due to your "courage".....

I wonder how it will look on the second attempt...to me it already looked great before!

Oh no! I think I would have been tempted to start on new linen rather than frog all that.
