Thank you all!

Lisa, go ahead and start it, you will love it! I love the way it looks so much more complicated than it actually is to stitch!

This is lovely, I adore blackwork. I did a small "goldwork" project as a "stashmas gift card" for my recipient and loved doing that so I hope to do a larger project in the future. You're getting on great with this - it looks so detailed and complicated!

Ahh well good luck on getting some wips completed Lisa, I look forward to pictures :)

Thanks all! I love the way it looks more complicated than it is. I have a couple more of hers (Tam's) to do and they are more complicated because the patterns are interlocking and closer together, whereas the one I am currently doing is stand alone motifs:
