I missed Crazycat joining this thread - what a great idea. It's such a pretty design and I will really enjoy you two bringing it to life together.

Great progress so far!!

Here is another update.
I haven't got too much done this week as various things have conspired against me but here goes.
Image

I have never spent so much time unpicking a design - EVER!! It is much more difficult than I thought it would be and the linen isn't helping much either as there are slubs (as always with linen) right where I don't want them :evil:

Well done, Midge, you're making great progress. It's so lovely and colourful. Can't wait to see your picture, CC. It's great that the two of you are stitching this together. I have got the magazine that it's in so I might well do this in the future.

Sorry to hear the linen is being awkward Midge, but it certainly looks beautiful!
