On the Nordmark Cope embroideries:

One packet sent off to Helwig, with template.
One Styringheim device fully outlined, second half-outlined before I ran out of floss. New floss acquired today.

On the wool brick stitch cushion seat:

Have almost reached the half-way point, with the front of the cushion "framed out" in the blue wool. Am as yet undecided if I will embroider the sides and back as well. Continues to be thoroughly amusing and therapautic.

On the coif/forehead cloth set (#3 if anyone's counting):

Materials have arrived, silk floss and imitation silver thread. This means that this project officially starts now. I think I will want to practice a bit with the silver to get a nice plaited braid stitch.
Pattern, not quite finalised yet. I will have to dedicate myself to finishing that off pronto. Tonight if possible. Because from now on I must dedicate much of my leisure time at embroidering this set. I am actually looking forward to it immensly!

Lia out.
