Dreams of Gaudí - Week 260

Another two pages are finished... so I've completed 55 pages out of 72, and it also means four full columns!

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 259

During the last two weeks almost everything has conspired against me so I wouldn't have as much stitching time as I normally do! :DDD But at the end I did manage to finish these two pages. I finally have three columns finished!

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 256

What happens when I take the week off and really get into stitching? I go completely crazy, can't stop, and finish a page in 5 days! :DDDDDD Of course this will never happen again, but the point is, I set up my new personal record :DDDD

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 255

Looks like I've settled into a pace lately, since I usually manage to finish a page (or two, like last time and now) in 9 days! :)))) So now I've completed 4 full rows!

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 254

Did I set up another record? I don't know, but I've managed to finish 2 pages in 9 days! OK, it was rather a whole page and a 1/4 :D Anyway, I have the whole third row completed, and the tower of the entrance building of Parc Güell has appeared! :D

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 253

I think I've set up my new personal record! I've done a bit of overtime on it this week, and I've managed to finish this page in 7 days! :D

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 252

Since I'm not counting the partial pages (I'm stitching them together with the full pages next to them), I have 17 pages left! :)))

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 251

Operation Let's-finish-this-sucker-by-the-end-of-the-year has officially started! :D If I can keep up this speed of finishing a page in 9 days, I just might make it! :D

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 250

Even with my color-highlight method I thought I would never finish this page... so much confetti in a heap! :DDD

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 249

Finished off two more pages. I really hope I can finish this piece by the end of next year! :)

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 248

These two pages started out as a dream, and ended up becoming a nightmare. When I started them I thought I'd be finished with them in 7-8 days, since there are nice big single-color patches in them... and I could've done it had I not miscounted right at the beginning of the first light pink, having to frog almost 500 stitches. It threw back my progress with at least 3-4 days, and let's not even talk about my mood. Whatever, with these 2 pages I've finished the first full column, so I've reached the bottom edge of the wip :))))

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 247

I thought I was never gonna finish this page in this life, the confetti on this page was a disaster! But fortunately there'll be nice big clouds on the next page, perhaps I can finish that one in a week again (instead of 13 days like this time!) :D

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 246

The advantage of a week off: even a brutally confetti-heavy page is finished in 8 days! :D I've suffered a lot with it, but the result is really worth it.

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 245

Since I just can't seem to stop with Gaudí after a week if I only have a little left from the page, I've decided to officially modify my rotation and do a whole page each round, however long it takes! :D Of course one reason I've decided to do this is because with my current speed I won't be finished until the middle of 2017, and I really want to finish it by the end of next year! :D
Anyway, I can say that this has been one of my favorite pages so far, even with all the confetti. I didn't check what was coming on this page before starting it, and while I was working on the yellow part, I had no idea how beautiful the window was going to be, especially with the rainbow! :))) After each finished color I stopped for a little bit and marveled at the sight :DDD

(PS: Where did everyone disappear? I miss all your updates :( )

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 244

This time it took me 11 days, but another page is finished! :)))

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 242

I'm really getting used to these finished-in-one-week pages, it's gonna hurt when I won't be able to go this fast with the more confetti-heavy pages :D

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 241

Finished yet another two pages! I've officially reached the end of the second row, and I'm officially at the 50% mark with this wip! :))))

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 239

So I've finished two pages at once. Of course the second one was a partial page, since I've finally reached the end of the first row! :)))) Of course I've cheated a bit since I added an extra day to the week, but I couldn't just stop when I only had a couple hundred stitches left! :DDD

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 238

I've managed to finish a page in a week again! :)))) Of course it wasn't too hard with so many big patches in the clouds. The next page will be pretty similar, I can't wait! :)))

Dreams of Gaudí - Week 237

What happens when my computer goes on the fritz right when I take a week off? That I finish off page 26 of Gaudí in only 5 days! :DDD This won't likely happen ever again! :DDDD
