Miscount

I thought I was on my last leg of the round robin but it appears I am only on the second to last leg. Debbie's piece arrived in the mail today, not Linda's. I guess what caused my confusion was that Debbie chose angels/faeries as her theme just as Twig did. And, yet again, the space to be filled is larger than agreed upon in the rules of the round robin, making this a more labor and time intensive stitch than expected. I do wish people would stick to the rules [70w x 70h] instead of expecting a larger work. I actually went smaller so as not to impose too heavily on another stitcher's project rotation. I shall have to locate another chart ... the folk art style I used for Twig won't work here ... I'll need something a bit more Victorian in style. Great gnashing of teeth!

I actually dropped out of an exchange group because the squares I was getting in return for the ones I sent that met the requirements were getting smaller and smaller. Sigh. Bad apples, all that.
