This is the weekly Work In Progress Wednesday report.
The Green Man
This stained glass block where I have decorated the bias tape between the various pieces of 'glass' is now complete. Colonial Knots have been added to every void of the Herringbone Stitch.
Ever since I started Sunday Stitch School in November 2016, I have made reference charts to showcase the stitches. The latest chart is now full and contains 30 stitches, #262 - #291.
I removed the butterfly-printed support panels (they've been there to make it easier to stretch the chart in a hoop).
Furthermore, I typed the names of every stitch, printed it on fabric and stitched each name in its right box by machine.
The next step was to prepare a new chart and attach the butterfly panels to it. The new chart has space for 54 new stitches! I certainly hope I will be able to find 54 stitches!
Hexablooms
I stitched up five more flowers. I used grey fabric for one of them - have you ever seen a grey flower before?

You have had a very productive week. You have been able to find many new and unusual stitches. I think you will find at least 54 more! Nice additions to your hexagon collection.
Great progress Queenie. I'm always inspired by your stitches and colors.
And you've started a new Reference Chart. You're very organized.
A grey flower? I'll get out my wild flower reference book and have a look....
I don't think you'll have any trouble finding more stitches - there seems to be an endless supply!
You are so very organized!
I don't think you will have any trouble filling those stitches judging from your past efforts!
The center of your hexagonal flowers is often a special color such as gold or silver, but is there a purpose behind it? I don't remember ever seeing gray flowers, but you made them and showed them to me. Thank you Queenie.🙋
