A quick update on this. Managed to get a couple of hours worth of stitching done on this this morning. Almost got her neck finished and managed toget some done on her hat .Unfortunatly,ive ranout of Anchor 886 light sand to finish the hat,but the good newsis that my darling wife as just popped out and will be stopping at our local wool shop to pick me some more up. So should be able to finish it tonight.

She's looking good! Ain't it annoying though, running out of a colour right in the middle of a project. Good thing you've got such a supportive wife!

What a great job you're making of this, it really looks so good. :)
Hope your wife is able to get the colour you need.

I was VERY tempted when I saw this on the magazine cover...but decided about 4000 other projects needed to be started/finished first. She's looking good, keep up the great work!!

She looks fantastic! You've done a great job with her.

I somehow mangaed to aquire two coppies of both of these magazines though, so if anyone else wants to stitch her but doesn't have the designs, you can always PM me for one of my spares.

The world of cross stitching have just posted a photo online I thought you may like. Apparently a lot of people have been having trouble lining the 2 parts up, so they have posted a photo of the 2 charts joined together.

I don't think you can often refer to a pirate as being pretty, but she is! :applesauce:
