View Full Version : My latest project
baileys_mum 17-06-2007, 12:32 Hello!
I'll be the first to admit I very rarely finish a cross stitch in one go without starting another cos I got bored!
This one I WILL FINISH!
Its a Wallace and Gromit one for my boys

thats what it looks like done
Its a 26cm by 15 cm
wish me luck!
kittenta 17-06-2007, 13:03 I like the deisgin! Good luck Baileys mum! I have the same problem with my cross stitch, it rarely gets finished :hihi: Keep us informed how you get on :D
baileys_mum 17-06-2007, 13:06 Just sorting the threads now, then I'll be starting. I hopefully want it finished within the month :D
Well, I think it would be ENTIRELY wasted on children. It should be given to somebody who has the maturity to truly appreciate its beauty.
Let me know when you've finished it, and I'll PM you my address :hihi:
The only cross stitch I do now tends to be Mother's Day cards for the ma-in-law, so I have no option but to finish them. This means I'm usually up until about 2am, and going cross-eyed and grumpy!
You'd think I'd be a bit better organised and start the dratted things a bit earlier, but somehow it's always a last-minute job.
Love to see a photo of the finished articel (that's if you won't be sending me the original).
Dozy
baileys_mum 17-06-2007, 16:26 lol Dozy, after paying what I did, plus the hours doing it my boys would be most upset if they didn't get it :hihi:
I'll be up for parting with the chart tho afterwards :D
holidayhutch 17-06-2007, 23:42 Great design, will look forward to seeing a WIP of this and if you get bored I could always stitch it for you for a small fee as I do model stitching in my spare time:)
baileys_mum 18-06-2007, 09:48 pardon my idiocy but whats WIP? work in progress?
kittenta 18-06-2007, 15:28 Yes it is work in progress :)
