Think I'd better stop holding my breath for the reveal. I have gone a very deep shade of blue... :roll:

Absolutely no idea. But the stitching's coming on nicely.

Regards,

Richard.

With a reddish tinge I suspect. Majestic Blue maybe, or Nitrogen, if you were an ink.

The reveal will come as the picture grows...

Progressing slowly, health all too often preventing me from stitching.
Pleased with the way this is developing though.

Well, when I saw your photo I thought it was Ken Dodd, even before I read the other replies and indeed it is Doddy, Squire of Knotty Ash and King of the Jam Butty Mines.

I went to one of his shows in the 80's and it was hilarious, my sides were aching the next day from laughing the whole night and it is true about how his shows over-ran. It was supposed to end at 11.15pm and we left the theatre at 12.50. Such a loss.

Your stitching is so lovely and neat and even and such a good likeness, is it from a photo?

Very well done :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

Thanks all, glad you like it!
I had the honour and privilege of knowing Ken, so this is my tribute to someone I was very proud to call a friend.

I was supposed to go see him but ended up in hospital having my son early, it was almost 10 years before i managed to actually see him, he was brilliant oh we laughed till we cried, I cried again when he passed away and i don't normally for "celebs", he bought so much joy to so many people :) What a lovely tribute to your wonderful and sadly missed friend, it is so lifelike even half done, please keep us updated xx
