It looks quite colourful, just wondering if you have a picture of what it will look like when finished, curiosity is just killing me :o

Oh you're sooo sweet. No we don't mind you sharing your projects. We actively encourage it actually. We're nosey and curious and stitch addicts. If we're not stitching it, we get our fix by others stitching it instead. And we never will tire of it. So go ahead.

Your fairy looks gorgeous! You've done a great job so far and I look forward to seeing this glorious picture progress.
