Big Cats SAL. Valb and ~threadbear~.

So I recently swapped my pako organiser with Ally for a kit and here it is:
It's all in chinese, so I can't tell you alot about it.

But anyhow it's on black 14ct aida and I think it's all 2 strands. Well, that's what I'm assuming anyhow.

(If anyone knows any different please tell me, but make it soon!

).
I decided I'm going to try having a few different projects on the go and do a bit of rotation on them. I'll post again when I've made a good start on this.

I have that lovely chart and have got most of the threads to make a start on it. I have the instructions in English if you would like them. You are right it is using 2 strands. Good luck with it. I will be starting mine when i can take my wrist braces off ( probably on Tuesday when i have seen the Doctor)
I can't wait to start it

Thanks Kazzi.
Val, that would be great, thank you!

I hope you can start it soon. Maybe we could do a SAL together on it?
(Although I won't be very quick as I plan to rotate with dogs and a Haed design).

Oh, and I hope all goes well for you at the Dr's.

That would be great. I will also be rotating it with my other Tiger chart and my lovely fairy from K1ns.

Faith, if you want to get this kit as well and join our SAL you'd be more than welcome!
Val, I'll change the title now so that this thread is for both of us and we can just update on here as we go!
I'm really excited, I've never done a SAL like this before. It'll be such fun to 'share' the project with someone.

Oh, this is gorgeous, I'm going to love watching both of you stitch it. The big cats all look stunning on the black background.

Looking forward to seeing the stitching - I love the design (and most big cat designs) - but it just does not match our decor. So I will sit on the sidelines and cheer you guys on. (with chocolate of course)

I'm so glad you're getting on well with it Ally and finding it a help.
I love this project.

It's going to be quite slow I would think, with two others on the go as well, but I couldn't wait to start it!
Thanks again Ally, I'm so glad we did our swap.
