I think I did this once before, keeping you in suspense with my latest project.
Mean aren't I!!
I have been busy working on one of a series. It is one of the same series that Sylvia got me to do as my first real cross stitch project (although I had been doing tapestry up to then).
I hope to finish it in the next couple of weeks before I go off on a weeks holiday, at the moment it is supposed to be to Sharm-el-Sheik, but I have a feeling that Saga will send me somewhere else which will please my Sons.
When it is done I promise that I will take a pic for you all.
He he he.

That's so funny... you should give us more details, like the brilliant colours, and the fabric, and all the little things to drive us crazy.

But if I keep doing this

Now that I have finished it my next project in one of Norwich Cathedral which I will be starting while I am on holiday in Sharm-el-Sheik.
This kit was given to me by a child minder who goes to the Mother and Toddler group where I help out. It has actually been started, but only a few stitches have been done.
Don't know how much I will do in between lazing in the sunshine, eating and drinking with maybe a dip or too in the swimming pool or the sea.
