I admire your patience...being a mom really comes over anything else, right? :wink:

I'm sure your project will still be as lovely as ever! Take care! :wub:

Fantastic progress Lisa, shame about the crayon embellishment, but hopefully you'll find a way of covering it.

:hug: to you for not loosing it :wub:
Many years ago Katie went on a little drawing spree on the walls of our house, she was fond of drawing large faces, we told her not to do it again, but kept the one behind the living room door, we named it 'Katie's Picasso' she is still chuffed that we embraced her creativity :lol:

not much of the pirates done but I was taking a pic of the daffodil so I thought I may as well update the ship while I'm at it. Starting to hide madams art work

Image

the wonderful Agi had sent me the most beautiful daffodil. I do this along with the pirates as atm there is a lot of white with the pirates and a lot of yellows in the daff, so I'm working OK with them like this, if that makes sense.

heres the finished article:

and here is where I am now:
