I'd forgotten about this one! Nice to see him back. This must seem to come together very quickly compared to your Telescope.

Hehehe, only two - I hardly know what to do with myself, Mabel. Actually I've got a cupboard full of stash already, I'm just trying to behave myself and keep my hands off it a bit longer!

I have a kit that Simon's sister bought me for Christmas which is a long narrow picture with three panels to stitch that have sunflowers on;

A UFO of a horoscope type sampler from the same horrible chart book the Dragon came from (horrible because the chart is so hard to see without really good light);

A UFO of 3 wolves (three quarters finished);

A chart of my dog that I made which I just need to buy a piece of fabric for;

A chart of a yin and yang with dragons in that Simon wanted me to stitch, which I only need the fabric for;

A project to stitch for my Mum, probably for Christmas, which I found in the latest issue of Cross Stitch Collection which I only need the fabric for (any of you who bought this mag, there is a sampler of a bird table and birds, some in colour and some in black and white - I thought I would stitch the bird table and just the birds which are in colour and make it into a tall narrow picture for my Mum). I'll take a pic anyway when I'm going to do it.

The next thing I will start is going to be the sunflowers that were a gift. Then after those I'm going to tackle the UFOs before I start any more new things.

I'm voting for the sun flowers and the dog!
Would love to see both those first out of your unfinished projects.

Well, the sunflowers are definitely coming next, TB. I'll start them in a couple of weeks when I'm nearer to finishing the dragon.

Here's a pic of the kit - I took it at Christmas when we were posting pictures of our stash gifts...

The fabric is pre-printed and you just have to stitch the three square panels.

I'd forgotten you still had this one to do as well as the Bubble, you'll soon be up to doing my map *sniggers*. Yes bring Gilbert, the hole's in one floor are fixed, just got t'other floor to fix now, then maybe, one day in the none to distant, we might have new doors too :P
