Lizzy, I know you're the only one who can decide wether or not to finish this, but I have to tell you that I really like the way it looks. It really captures that overcast feel that it is supposed to have.

Wow, the difference between your latest picture and the one before is amazing. I wasn't sure about the colours before, (hope you don't mind me saying so!) but now I think it is looking fantastic.

I too think that it will be well worth it in the end. Although - with so much effort going into a big project like this, it is an awful shame if you're not actually enjoying working on something that, as a hobby, should be fun :? :?

I almost missed that update. You've got so much done and it looks great, can almost hear the rain splashing down

Wow!! Those cobblestones look incredible, so realistic!! :applesauce: :applesauce: I am glad you're enjoying this one again, I was going to say that often once a project is done and on the wall you forget about little bits along the way that you weren't sure about, you're not so close up to every single stitch as you obviously are when you're working on it.

Thanks Louise :) The cobblestones are even better from a distance. In fact the whole thing is but it doesn't seem to photograph well but maybe thats just my camera skills :lol:

Thanks Lisa, I'm glad you asked that as I thought I still had half pages to go before I reached the bottom but now I've looked they are only about 2 blocks deep :D
