Here is an update as of last night. Around halfway done I believe so shouldn't take much longer to finish. Will be nice to give her a head! Thanks again to everyone for your lovely comments.

The linen works really well as a background to this! What type of linen do you use, Permin/Wicherlt, DMC or Zweigart?

Thanks Mabel. In this particular case I don't actually know what sort it is since I just ordered the linen version of the kit. I've looked over the kit and all it says is "100% linen 28 threads". Ordinarily I order Zweigart if doing a chart or replacing aida in a kit like I will do for the Tenderness one.

Couldn't resist doing her face last night. Hoping I can finish the design this weekend - just her upper body and then her hat left.

This really is amazing and so beautifully suited to the linen. Your stitching is fantastic and it looks so much more detailed and delicate than the photo of it in your first post!!
Many years ago cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never forgotten this.
