That's very restrained of you :-) -- I don't think I've ever succeeded in narrowing down my 'next project' list to anything less than about five!

Thats narrowed down from the 15 wips and additional 15 or so kits not looked at yet. No really on my holiday I went to a couple of zoos and I feel inspired to do some kind of big cat project next.

No picture but some news. Last night while stitching I suddenly realised I only had one colour left on my chart to stitch (I am ignoring the backstitch for now!).

And next project is decided too.

Wow, so you are nearing the end! You can see the light at the end of the tunnel?
And I love the new project, too.

Neuschwanstein Castle is such a beautiful castle! Your work looks beautiful and I'm so glad you are so close to completing it! The tiger is going to be gorgeous as well!
