I know I have 2 others in my stash but as they are all 35 pages each there is no way I can start them all at once. Did you watch Stargazing Live? Some gorgeous photos on there that would make fantastic charts :)

yes I did, they were fabulous pics, my partner does deep space photography and some stunning pics, you've made me think about doing one of them as a cross stitch

That would be great and even more special if its one of his photos. I particularly love the pics of the galaxies and nebulas :)

Been awhile since I updated but I have made some progress on this! Finally finished the first page and waded through all that black and navy blue. Page 2 still has a lot of dark colours but I am now starting to stitch the outer parts of the galaxy :D
