Very pretty!! Nicely stitched!

Very neat and pretty

What a pretty pattern and I like the colour combination, the bright blue is such an interesting contrast!

It's really pretty, love the colours Where is the pattern from?

Look forward to seeing it completed

So pretty - and I adore the colours. Dying to know where you got the pattern and I can hardly wait to see your finished biscornu!

thanks for all the comments, the pattern is part of a larger pattern which i have modified colour wise, it is from the pattern 'floral fire screen' from the world of cross stitching, issue 106 (dec 2005) had the first part which I dont have and issue 107 (jan 06) had the second which I do have, i purchased the chart from an ebay seller and am currently looking for the other one.

asking for advise, should i put a row of satin stich between the edge of the design and the back stitch border or leave it as it is?

many thanks Pixxie

Thanks for the info, will have to try and track it down

It's really lovely x can't wait 2 see it stitched up

Lovely stitching and the colour's are gorgeous together

ok, I've got the beads on it now just got the back stitch border to do and thats the front done

Very lovely design and colors! The beads really add to the beauty.

I love the colours

The colors are so pretty and the beads give it such a wonderful touch!

Oh wow that is so pretty. I love the beads!!!!!

Very pretty. The beads really set it off

Beautiful! I personally wouldn't put satin stitch around it, it would probably take away the "lacyness" of the piece, don't you think?

thats what i thought about the satin stitch too, plus I don't have the patience for satin stitch!!!!
