Love with a Capital L February progress

Hi, BAP stitchers!  "Love" was my focus project for February; why not, given the subject matter?  So I did work on it quite a lot.  I have 3 colors in play now- all Gloriana Silk- crimson (main), pumpkin (border and motifs), and copper (second color in the text).  I am happy with these choices but I still need something more variegated for the big capital L that will be at the top left.
Previous progress:

Currently:
In March I will try to finish the berry vine band (work across to the right side) and work on the next page.    Honestly, I got pretty tired of this project in February, so I don't expect to make as much progress in March.  I do want to finish this year, however.

  2. Lovely work and color detail. Where did you get the chart? I'd like to add it to my STASH inventory.

    1. I bought it at a LNS years ago. 123 stitch has it now, though. "Love with a Capital L" by Papillon Creations.

  6. Those colors are so pretty together. At first I thought I was looking at variagated thread. Such a pretty combination.

  7. Thanks everyone! Honestly, this project stitches up much faster than I expected with only a few colors and lots of negative space.
