I decided to end my rotation on the New England Sampler after a very satisfactory two weeks. As previously reported I completed the lower panel in the first week. In the second week I finished the lower border including the bottom two corners and also stitched the boundary lines on the bottom and both sides of the sampler.
This seemed like a good place to stop. I could have carried on and worked on the side borders but decided to leave this to next time. The borders are relatively easy to do as they follow a regular pattern so they make a nice break from having to carefully follow the pattern on other areas of the sampler. So we'll see where I decide to pick this up next time.
In the meantime I think I can safely revise my estimate of completeness of this project to 65%.
I'm now working on LaTrobe Terrace.

I'm just re-reading a xsers thread on rotations and saw your blog, so here I am. Love the NE sampler, have you been there, I loved it when I went there.
keep up the good work

Looks like your rotation is going great! You're making great progress on your projects :)
Thanks for your comments Julie and Anne. Julie, I'm originally from New England which is why I bought this sampler. It's been in my stash for 12 years so it's good to see it coming together. In fact this whole rotation system is really productive.
