That is an awesome piece of work and you are doing so well with it too. in finally getting out of the green and into the lovely pinks and other colours.

very pretty

I loveeeee the L&L design! And the gazebo is very pretty and scenic. I have no idea who Mr.Men is though... Is that a British thing? Lol

Lovely work!! I have the Mr Men alphabet in my stash... I did intend to stitch it but never got round to it and my kids are not really into Mr Men..... x

Yes, the Mr. Men is a British thing. It's a collection of animanted figures who behave according to their name, e.g. there is Mr Happy who is always happy, Mr Greedy who can't stop eating, Mr Messy whose house and person are a mess, Mr Tickle who has very long arms and keeps tickling people, Little Miss Sunshine who is always cheerful, Little Miss Neat who keeps everything in it's place, Little Miss Naughty who I'm stitching at the moment (her name says it all!!) etc.

I did the Mr Men alphabet a couple of years ago and it is now hanging on my girls' bedroom wall. I'm hoping to get the months one done before they grow out of Mr. Men. (I'd better get a move on!!!)

Thanks so much for all the encouragement everyone

Oh cool! They are certainly very colorful, and I bet fun to stitch as well

All of your projects are gorgeous!! I really do love the Mr Men though, takes me back to my childhood!!

Finished April last night

The aim is to keep ahead of the months so I'll have it finished by the end of the year. I usually do a bit while the girls are in the bath, so it's little and often, but hopefully it'll keep moving along. For those who don't know, I'm reliably informed that the character is Little Miss Naughty.
Hoping to have an update of Gazebo in the next couple of days.

these are so cute. I love Little Miss Naughty. What great colors these are.
