Another update! Got the rose head finished now - just the bottom third of the design to complete. Most of it is green stalks and blue background and there's a bow around the stalks.

Great progress -- honestly, I swear you've got mice coming out at night to do your stitching for you, like the Tailor of Gloucester :-)

Cecilia, I'm really enjoying it - as I said it's not something I would choose for myself, but I love the colours in it and I like how it's divided into little sections by the black lines - it seems to grow really quickly.
