Nearly finished

I think I did this once before, keeping you in suspense with my latest project.

Mean aren't I!!

I have been busy working on one of a series. It is one of the same series that Sylvia got me to do as my first real cross stitch project (although I had been doing tapestry up to then).

I hope to finish it in the next couple of weeks before I go off on a weeks holiday, at the moment it is supposed to be to Sharm-el-Sheik, but I have a feeling that Saga will send me somewhere else which will please my Sons.

When it is done I promise that I will take a pic for you all.

He he he. :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's so funny... you should give us more details, like the brilliant colours, and the fabric, and all the little things to drive us crazy. ;)

Now that I have finished it my next project in one of Norwich Cathedral which I will be starting while I am on holiday in Sharm-el-Sheik.

This kit was given to me by a child minder who goes to the Mother and Toddler group where I help out. It has actually been started, but only a few stitches have been done.

Don't know how much I will do in between lazing in the sunshine, eating and drinking with maybe a dip or too in the swimming pool or the sea. :lol: :lol: :lol:
