Faery by Pool

This is one I have just started, and have only done 83 stitches, so absolutely no pictures yet.

I copied the chart from a cross stitch book (they do tell you to, so no copyright problem). I wanted to do something fairylike.

When I think it worthwhile I will chart my progress with pics. :lol: :lol: he, he, he.

I love fairy themes, and you're so bold in making a chart of your own, so I'm looking forward to seeing some progress pics. Happy stitching!

'When its worthwhile' !
Surely one stitch is worthwhile let alone 83. You tease!

Did a quick mental count from the chart, there are something over 4000 stitches, so 83 has barely touched it!

Patience girls!!

The finished project is to be 24 x 28 inches, and there will be around 100 plus beads to do as well as loads of backstitch.

Am I mad or what??? :x :x :x

Not much to see so far, except the picture of what it will look like.

This is going to take me some months to complete.
