Just for you then, an update pic! Haven't done huge amounts to be honest, but it's getting there.

Ooooh, I did that angel a couple of years ago! I like the background fabric though, that's going to look lovely when it's done.

Just caught up with these, and the sampler is a particular favourite of mine. And the fabric for Hope is excellent.

Thought about the t-shirt. Shouldn't think washing will be a problem. He'll never consent to take it off! :P

I know I've been absent for a while but I have still been busy stitching behind the scenes!

Not much doing on the sampler (I'm finding it a bit drab and dull at the moment!), but I have done a reasonable bit on Angel, inbetween Christmas cards ...

I'm really enjoying working on the Angel, especially now I have at last got past that huge swathe of white under the blue sash. I forced myself to do several rows of that between other colours otherwise I'd never have got round to it!
