Thank you both.

It reminded me of a Viking helmet.

LOL! I see what you mean, Rose!

Though it is looking less like that since this morning's stitching bout.

Wow, I like this! It's going to make a lovely present for someone and the fabric you're using is perfect for it! Can't wait for the next update!

Here's an update:

It's so lovely! I wasn't able to find this exact one on sew and so (I guess they sold out) but I did find a nice pair, Graecia and Roma, which I'm going to buy when I get paid. Oh, look, it's payday tomorrow!

Maybe I bought the last one!

I must look for those two, sound interesting.

Great progress!

A bit more done - only got the base to do now:

Erm... that's a bit of a jigsaw I'm doing, behind it, at the bottom!

And I noticed, a couple of days ago that the design is asymetrical. I thought I had made a mistake, at first,

but I had followed the pattern carefully, so I checked it out, and then checked the pic of it - and it's meant to be asymetrical. I'm not sure if I like that or not, and I was tempted to MAKE ir symetrical, but in the end I decided to leave it as the designer intended. It looks ok, anyway.

Looking good!

Me as well. Lovely progress on this FD.

This looks lovely. I can't see the original picture though!

Fljotsdale · Post by **Fljotsdale** » Tue Nov 04, 2008 7:19 pm

Er, no.

I deleted it on photobucket, not realising it would vanish here, too.

Great progress!

I was also going to ask you to put it back, please, if you can, or post a link - I really would like to find it, and put it on my wish list. (Googled but couldn't find it.)

I've now completed the urn, but have the 'frame' edge of the pic to complete - just a rectanglular single line of xstitch around it. Will post pic when done.

I'll take another pic of it and post it in the thread again.
