The twins are 3 month old. They are quite a handful, but overall they are pretty easy babies. They leave me an hour or two stitching time in the evening, so no complaints there. And I just can't resist showing them off a little, so here they are:

Love your picture, too - I've not seen this thread before. It looks exactly like you are stitching a watercolour painting. :wub: :wub: :applesauce: :applesauce: It's lovely!

As pretty as your stitching is, the babies are just precious. And obviously considerate in allowing you some time in the evening to stitch. Enjoy.

You are coming along well with the stitching - its exciting to see the design coming through now.

What a gorgeous pair the twins are and its great they are leaving you some time to stitch too.

You're doing an awesome job on this stitching. I've always looked at this one in the store, but never picked it up. Lovely to be watching this grow.
