Meerkat's WIP's Memorial Rose update 09.12.011

I have had this chart for a while and having completed Rose Fairy I got the fabric for it this week.
I have always liked the simplicity of the designs and colours of LHN designs, and I chose The North Wind to stitch first..I know I will stitch more of these, I have a wish list a mile long.
I purchased the recommended Crescent Colours floss ( I love the names of these colours) but instead of 32ct evenweave I have gone for 16ct aida in light blue. My eyes need a rest from the Hardanger and Lugana fabrics and I can use my stitching stand for this project,as I can see the holes clearly
No progress picture yet,I have only put 11 stitches in so far.

This is such a lovely design, I have it in my stash but haven't had a chance to stitch it yet. Can't wait to see you stitch it up

My first update.I am enjoying this one very much,I
the crecsent colours and I had to put in a splash of colour in the shape of 'robin',because I wanted to see what the fallen leaves colour looked like on the fabric
I am going to do some stitching on my Vine design for a few days, it has been a bit neglected of late.
