Yep I've decided to start YET another xs!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

This isn't usually one that I would pick but thought it would be lovely to do a smaller project, one that I can see an end too! :D

I'm completing this for my boyfriends mum for Christmas. She absolutely adores cats, so think she would appreciate this! (Lets hope eh?)

Started sorting the colours last night, so should have a picture soon.

Here is the finished design..............

Reminds me of my two licking their chops and nittering in anticipation of chicken dinner... :lol: But it's a lovely project. :D

And Yoshi actually caught and ate a bird last week. Sadly, it was a Mistle Thrush - at least, so far as I could tell from the mangled remains... :rain:

Sorry I haven't given an update yet! We have decided to give this XS to my other half's mum for her birthday and not Christmas which was about a month ago!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: So I'm desperately trying to get a move on with it so she doesn't have to wait too much longer!!!

Anyway here is my first update...

I think i'm about half way, but its difficult to tell! Do you find the faster you're trying to stitch, the slower it seems to come along!? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

You are going really well this Nic. I agree with you, the faster you try to get something finished the slower/harder it is.

I did this some years ago but left out the boards at the side. It is still rolled up and waiting to be framed.
