At the Steps, third time lucky

Now i have my magnifying lamp i decided to give 25 count another try.  I was doing 2x1 tent on At the Steps  on 18 count and wasn't altogether happy with the coverage.  I experimented and found placing my needle through the holes of fabric was actually much easier than the 18 count Aida.  Using my magnifier was much easier.
So I pulled out my mini At the steps that had been started on 25 count and continued.   For this one,  I am using the typewriter method, per page.   I had already done 1029 stitches and increased it to 1630 in one afternoon.   On my 18 count I had reached 2730 stitches, so I not too far behind where I was.
I am finding the typewriter method so much faster than diagonal parking.
