A wonderful keepsake!

I'm attempting a project of my dogs at the moment, which one of our lovely members on here made into a chart for me.

Seeing yours is lovely. you made a fantastic job of it, well done!!!!

Thankyou all of you

Nettie,this is only the 2nd design of my own I have done and I have only done 3 other cross stitch projects which were small kits.

I have just started one of my horse yesterday.

Very nice! Well done

I would love to stitch my cats and dog. Do you have a computer program to design your own patterns?

It's lovely, Rita, well done! A wonderful keepsake of your dog. I have a chart of my own dog that I intend to stitch at some point before too long.

I'd love to see pictures of your progress on the horse.

A lovely keepsake, and very brave to tackle something so big and complax when you hadn't been stitching long!

What a wonderful idea - and a great looking project.
I'm tempted to try something similar with our old labrador (RIP)
