Yes, this came from Cross Stitch Gold. It's not the cheapest of magazines (I think it's nearly £5 a time!) but it does have some beautiful designs in it. It seems to concentrate on larger projects with only a few smaller things in it.

Here's another update on this one. There was a 1 inch wide strip down the right hand side to do and then almost a full page the other side. Now a long strip about 2 inches deep along the bottom left to do before loads and loads of back stitch and sewing on of beads.
I'm actually off work sick at the moment so should get it finished this week. It's only a cold and cough and amazingly I don't have the runny nose bit, so having my head down sewing isn't a problem!
PS - the fabric hasn't suddenly turned yellow! The photo was taken under our rubbish energy saving living room light When I finish the stitching I'll do a decent picture in daylight at the weekend.

Looking great! Hope you feel better soon. I don't care for the CF bulbs either. I've started stocking up on GE "Reveal" bulbs. They're not perfect, but the best compromise between price & performance I've found.
