Thanks, everyone! :D

I'll post another pic when I've finished. I have to complete the tree, a bit at the bottom, then move over to the left side of the pic. It's wider than the right side, but no tree, so only as high as the purplish bit on the left, and a lot isn't filled in. Hopefully shouldn't take too long. Then there's the backstitching... :neutral:

All done but the backstitching. I had to :ribbit: part of the trunk/branches of the big tree - I had mistaken a colour symbol. I think I was watching tv at the time... :oops:

Anyway, fixed now. I shall be able to get back to my dragon soon. I'm no good at doing 2 projects at once!

BTW, this pic is 10x10 to frame. The aida, however, is longer one way than the other. I didn't notice, I just started in the middle. However, though I haven't measured to be sure, I suspect that I would have had a narrow margin on two sides whichever way I placed the design on the fabric. Must measure... I folded it so it was centred not including the selvage, so that wasn't the problem.

It may be a bit tricky for the framer to deal with. :thinks:

Just caught up with this, and it's wonderful! So life-like in the detail. Have you any ideas about framing? Well done, anyway! :applesauce: :applesauce:
