Helen Bell's Multiplication Table - Progress

I decided to work the back-stitch lines along with the digits now, rather than waiting till all the numbers are stitched.

Mermaid Sampler - Progress

This thing is teeny weeny. Two flower motifs in the upper corners and it will be 2/3 complete. There are some specialty stitches on the bottom section. I haven't done them before. This challenge has been great exposing me to new things!

The color of the fabric is really washed out in this photo. It's a lovely hand-dyed blue.
