Towards the Light - 10 Hours

 As I will explain in more detail once I get around to doing my WIPocalypse kickoff (any day now, I promise!), this year I am trying to give some more love to my older, neglected WIPs. And the first lucky candidate is one I haven't douched in over a year and I think I never showed here before!

It's actually not cross stitch, but diamond painting. Yes, I got a couple when they first where all the range, but never worked on them much. This one is a pattern by Unconventional X Stitch called Towards the Light - on the smaller side for a full coverage cross stitch at just 38k stitches, but as a diamond painting it will still be almost 50cm x 50cm. 

After 10 hours, I'm a little over 10% in, and look how pretty and shiny it is! 


 In case you're interested how it'll look like when it is finished...some day probably far along the road...here is the pattern mockup:


That being said, I currently really enjoy working on this, it doesn't have too many colours and I can finish up a 400 stitch quare in under an hour. I will probably do a little more before I pack it away for now!
