Plum Pudding - Glendon Place - 07.04.15

The 7th April marked the end of the second week of my SAL with Amanda aka Mrs Milkybarkid on Plum Pudding by Glendon Place.

It's strange to watch my own piece and Amanda's grow as we have both taken completely different approaches as to how we stitch it.  We both started in the middle and she has worked outwards in a circular pattern.  I started in the middle and stitched one section in each colour as I was eager to see what each silk looked like.  I then worked out to the top left hand corner and I am now completing the pattern from the top down but completing each section as I go.  I hope that makes some sort of sense!

Here are my before and after pictures.



I'm looking forward to 1st May to get another week stitching on this.

Keep stitching and smiling

Wonderful progress, it's really beautiful!
I think it's so interesting how people work the same pattern so differently.

I commented on Amanda's earlier. I would work it the same way she has but then I would get left with the long borders so maybe your way is better because it prevents that issue!

Which ever way, it is a gorgeous piece with lovely colours.

Wow, there is a big difference on how you both are stitching this pattern. Opens ones perspective on how to work patterns.
