Thanks, guys.
I've just finished stitching the reverse while Xan is having a nap and I've washed it so I'm just waiting for it to dry. Once it's dried, I can iron the pieces and start assembly tonight after I put Xan to bed.

They really look great together
I had a look in your site and you've made some lovely designs. I'm tempted to stitch the bibliophile bookmark for a bookmark exchange I'm in
