Working on linen makes it a tougher project, but having used linen in the past, I’m afraid I can’t go back to Aida – it simply doesn’t look the same. And it’s not too bad if I can work on it in the daylight – but under electric light in the evenings is more challenging! It’s been a Bank Holiday here today, so I’ve been able to get a few hours in on it – things always take longer than you think though don't they – if I repeat that to myself often enough, I might just get it into my head ....... this morning I said to myself “oh I’ll probably have this finished by this evening. Dream on Julia!!!!

Blackbird Designs sure puts out some very good stitchery patterns. Enjoyed seeing your project.
Hello Julia! I think you are getting on very well with your cross-stitch. I have been working on some of my cross-stitch projects for years!!!
You're making great progress on this lovely design. I started this one myself a while ago but went wrong on the border which threw the whole thing out.
I consigned it to the bin but don't rule out starting over when I get over myself!

This is really pretty! I will have to look out for these patterns.
Hi Julia, You mentioned on my blog that you were visiting Haworth soon.. If you get chance, go to a shop called "The Souk" its an amazing Aladdins Cave!! Enjoy your visit.
Well Julia, now you're doing cross-stitching! I just don't know how you do it all! I used to love doing this before my "bifocal" days. Your work is so neat and fabulous. Everything you make, gives me the feeling of "comfort." Hugs, Cami
