lovely progress!
I love how you are stitching it as well, do you only do 1 part of the cross stitch first for the whole colour before going back and finish the crosses? (if that makes sense) as I'm still fairly new to this I always love finding out different techniques to find the one that suits me the best.

Nope, I always finish my crosses as I go along. With this particular pattern, though, there are a lot of crosses where the bottom stitch is one color and the top stitch is another color. I guess it's supposed to help with blending. That's why it looks like I have a lot of unfinished crosses.

Moving along pretty quickly! Here's the latest:
Oh, and my friend posted a picture of the baby's nursery on Facebook --- it looks like a Pooh theme, so this will fit in nicely! (She doesn't know I'm making this for her).

Can't help but fall in love with a Winnie the pooh cross stitch can you?!
