Great news! You'll soon be completely eagle-eyed (or should that be owl-eyed) again!

Thanks everyone. I am hoping today I can finish his body and maybe even start the legs and flowers etc and then all that back stitching tomorrow and Monday morning. That's the plan anyway - we will see how it works out.
I want to have the first bookmark at least started when I go to embroidery group on Tuesday morning. :)

Well I have tried 3 times to down load the latest picture from the camera to my album and its not working. Not only that but neither of the 2 have shown up on Post image. It will have to wait now until I get home from my embroidery group this afternoon and I will give it another try.
Sorry folks.

Hopefully this is a mock up framing job of the Owl. I just folded it into the frame and anchored it temporarily.

Obviously persistence pays off. I've no idea why some of the earlier ones did not show up on print image - I have 3 of them on my album.
However alls well that ends well and you can now see the finished product. :whoop:
