"Meerkat" progress



I am stitching "Festive Cheerkat" by Peter Underhill on 28ct Laguana. This is my first stitching with lots of factional stitches.....plus squashed stitches. It takes lot of concentration with no distraction. I am trying to stitch this for one of my son's birthday. I am fond of Meerkats.
The top photo is where I am at and the bottom photo is the chart of what it will look like when done.

  6. It's a cute piece. I don't think I could do 28 count though my hats off to you. I'm sure your son will like it.

  7. Very cute! You were right to do it on evenweave if there are lots of fractional stitches. You would hate to do that on Aida!
