I know i have qiute a few
on the go, but some of you might know that my wife wants some AOY pictures to stick up on the playroom walls. Know when she saw this one, she decided that it should be the first one. So a big thank you to RosemaryH for the chart.
Now yet again, im stitching it on 14 count instead of 16 count.
This is the progress after the first night.
My only concern is that the chart says to use reverse half cross stitch, as i tried a couple of sample stitches and didnt think it look as good as normal half cross stitch..

Looking great, you are getting on very fast with this one. The reverse half stitch I think is purely for their shadows so probably does not matter which way it goes. Cannot wait for the next update.
Edit: Oops, I forgot that the sky is reverse half too, was walking up my stairs looking at them and suddenly realised that I had boobed.

Good progress on this. Such lovely designs.
I've only done one AOY and can't remember what I did with the reverse half stitch, but I'd say whatever looks best to you will be fine.

Due to a new range of products, and the new spring / summer cataloge being launched at work. Ive not been around much as ive being working stupid shift pattens.
So not been around much. But i have managed to get some stitching done on this.

You've got a lot done Corby and its going to look fabulous when it is done.
Hope the work eases up soon so you can stitch more.
