Here is my next project. I found this and thought my mom would like it for her beach themed laundry room. I thought it was neat that it comes with a mat for once it's finished.
For now I only have a picture of the package. It says it's a "weekend project" but it will take me a bit longer to complete. I hope to be a bit cleaner on this one than I was with my first project, now that I have the hang of most things.

Cute project! This would actually look good in my den once I get it decorated. I'm going to keep my eyes open for this kit!

I'm looking forward to seeing this. The mat is cool. I think it would take me more than a week end to do it too.

Lovely project, I am sure that your mum will love it for her laundry room. Never take any notice of how long they say a project will take because it depends on the that the stitcher stitches, the number of hours they put into it and things like disruptions.
Looking forward to seeing this progress.

I love that one. I did an afghan once that had a sea/fisherman motif for my husband and had several designs with sea shells. The one you picked is very pretty. I can't wait to see your updates.

Got a chance to start this today. My stitching isnt as clean as I would like but I'm hoping I will get better with that with more practice.

I think it looks just fine. Remember we are our own worst critics. So enjoy the stitching and don't over analyze.
If you are looking for some one to help change you, look in the mirror

lol!! This is 110% true. I am a graphic designer and I am never satisfied with any of my work. I always see the imperfections first.
Thank you for the compliment. The little bit of this project I have done so far I can tell I will enjoy this one more than my humming bird project.
