My first ever project - Charlie's Ark Falling Star

[Emma1977]

I'm very excited and proud as I've started my first ever x-stitch project. Its been done before and I thought what a lovely pic it was and then found the same kit on sale at my local Hobbycraft a few weeks later and snapped it up.

Here's my progress so far after 2 days. I'm lovng it and finding it very addictive Sorry for the large pic. I did re-size it but it won't seem to work

Oh, do enjoy it! I stitched this kit earlier in the year (I got it for Xmas from my Mam) and loved every second of it.

I know. I saw your great progress on it and I fell in love with the design then so I was made up when I saw it in Hobbycraft. I also bought the one of Charlie sat on the swing and like the look of the one with just him and Sally What was the second one your Mum got you for Xmas???

Have to admit that this is my second attempt at starting it. I originally started it over a week ago but made a huge mistake of somehow adding 2 extra rows ( don't know how) and then spent 2 hours unpicking about 70 stitches only for the aida to rip. Went and bought some more Aida and thread to match the pale blue to get home and find I had got 14 count and needed 16. Got there in the end and glad I persevered on it.

Congrats. You've made a great start, especially for a first project. Glad the initial snags didn't deter you.

The other one is the birth sampler. We've just started trying for baby #2 so I'm going to wait to stitch that one and put the DOB of Xan AND the new baby on it.
