:wink: Gotcha!! Well, we have been "trying" for about 4 years on and off, so I have a feeling that the afghan will be here finished long before a baby!!

BTW, your frame matches the pattern so well, it looks so lovely, you must be really happy with it!!

Now that is lovely, the frame is just right to set off the lighthouse, I just may have to get this one to add to my collection, you have to admit that there is something about AOY that makes you remember times gone by? What is next on your stitch list?
Happy Stitching

I know I answered this before but I lied about how many as I had forgotten the large one with parasols all around the outside that my eldest daughter stitched for me one Christmas.

I have 57 stairs from the front door to my roof terrace. The first section from the street to the main door has no cross stitched pictures in it at all but the second two sections is to be filled with AOY´s, so plenty of room for my collection. I stitch at least 4 before I ask my OH to put them up on the walls.

I love these pictures my mum has quite a few and she says that they remind her of me and my siblings when we were small. I love this one and the frame does match it perfectly. I never get tired of seeing these designs ever!

You have fineshed this so fast.

It looks great I love AOY charts, thought I might do some in years to come for my graddaughter's bedroom.
