2 pages down, 23 to go ...
Here's the second page of the pattern completed ... all 8,000+ stitches of it! Night Watchman is the largest I have attempted to date. I am enjoying it finally, because I am taking one page at a time - like each page is its own project. I'll keep you posted! :)

(If you hit the "View Item" button, you can see what the finished project will look like ... some day ...!)

Wow! You have tremendous patience! I am sure it will be beautiful when it is done.

Love it! I have ordered a few with lots of pages and hope to get started in the New Year. My sister would love the theme on this😊

You have a great attitude for this project! I too have a LOT of cover all patterns with lots of pages. Many are Mystic Stitch as well as Artecy. I started Mystic Stitch's Monet Water Lilies and have a little over 2 pages done (it is smaller with only 15 total pages), but it has been sitting on a back burner while I have been busy getting gift projects done. For the past year and half I have done more for give-aways than ever. This new year I am concentrating on projects for me! Of course that will probably change - again.

My kind of project, lmurdoch, and you're doing great on it. I've never seen this project before, but it's going on my Wish List. I stitch one page at a time, also. Although sometimes if a section of the design continues on the next page, I will work two pages together to complete that section. Keep posting as you go along, I will enjoy seeing it come alive.

It looks great so far. Can't wait to see more.

I am putting that on a wish list. I have never done an all over and in fact til I found this site a year ago, I did not know such an item existed. I love this pattern!! I like the idea of one page at a time. Pam

That is so moody . The finished article will be beautiful when finished.

If any of my cover-all designs, kitted up, have areas that are all one color, especially black, I will weep here, on everyone's shoulders! I must be close to being a little old lady, as I am getting more and more upset about other things that are upsetting me. I was unaware that 85,000 infants and little kids under one, have starved to death in Yemen.

I was told by all charitable groups that I am too old to join their active on-site staff, so that I feel helpless as a nurse (NP) and as a P.A. We do send money. I know it helps and that I am not meant to solve the world's problems. It just seems so impersonal.

This project (Night Watchman) has a total of 200,000 stitches. I have another project ("Trick or Treat" by Heaven and Earth Designs) that requires 556,250 stitches. I probably will take a couple of years off after I finish Night Watchman ... don't know if I can face that many stitches again any time soon!
