Hello!

This one I WILL FINISH!
Its a Wallace and Gromit one for my boys

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
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

lol Dozy, after paying what I did, plus the hours doing it my boys would be most upset if they didn't get it
I'll be up for parting with the chart tho afterwards

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

That is a lovely project! I have done a couple of smaller Wallace and Gromit designs for my brother on poloshirts (Rocket and just headshots) but that design is fabulous.
Enjoy it.
