Yay, a new project! I actually got this one with some Hobbycraft vouchers I got for my birthday back in October and I've been dying to start it, so I decided now we moved to a new house, I will start a new project, as if I haven't enough on the go already.

Here's what it will look like:-


And here's what I have done so far. It's stitched on cream 18 count Aida with Dimensions random unknown thread brand with bizarre numbers, hahaha. The design will measure 7 x 5 inches when complete and is stitched with a mixture of full crosses, half crosses and 1, 2 or 3 strands.

I've seen this design in a few places and the sky always catches my eye. Its a beautiful kit.

Great start

It must be too early in the morning because I swore the title of your post said Bacon at Daybreak and I was very confused for a moment. Maybe I just need breakfast....

It's a very lovely piece and a wonderful start. I agree with YoungStitcher, there is something about the sky that's captivating.

What a lovely kit. and a good start. I agree that the sky is beautiful. It should have some really interesting texture also with all the different strand combinations. I am looking forward to the updates on this one.

That's very pretty and not too big either, so it should be a nice quick stitch.

Beautiful project and great start.

There's some beautiful colors in this one! I can't wait to see more!

Just imagine what that would look like mechie!

Love the design Sarah - it's such a tranquil picture and great start

I really love this design--great choice!! Very nice start on it!! I'm looking forward to your next update!

I love the design, i do love Dimensions kits as they are so detailed, can't wait to see progress

I think we have seen this from a couple of other members and it always is so pretty to watch.

Agree with everyone else that there are some gorgeous colours in this. Very much looking forward to watching your progress - which, knowing the speed you can stitch at, will be nice and regular

8 in your rotation

Looks fabulously peaceful and great start too!

Great start! I enjoyed this one when I did it a few years ago. There are quite a few french knots if I remember correctly.

I'm sure you will have this stitched in no time with the speed you normally go. I am looking forward to your updates

I too saw this one in hobbycraft, great kit, looking forward to seeing it finished, which won't be long probably

Thank you for all the comments!

Mechie, that made me laugh, Bacon, hahaha! Now I'm hungry!

BusyB - French knots I haven't ready the chart properly yet, I just plunged right in. I hate the little pesky thinks, but never mind, they can wait until last.

I'm going to work on this for the next week probably and see how far I get by then. Another picture to come soon.

Such a pretty one for you to do and your start is a good one. Looking forward to the updates.

Lovely design and nice start! Won't you be done next week?

Beautiful design, I'll watch it with interest. I started a Dimensions petite a while ago, but it drove me mad with all the changes between the 1, 2, 3 strands, I was working in a pale sandy colour though and that didn't help. I'm hoping that watching you do it will encourage me to finish mine, I've got a frame for it and everything!!!
