Chris I think most of us were Cross stitchers in a previous life. I have one on the go that I started years ago. I might finish it one day (and then again I might not)
I know how many hours you must have put into these. What lovely ones they are too

I love sewing and made ots of stuff, including a maxi dress completely by hand when I was 17 ( showing my age now!) but never got the feeling cross stitch Embarassed

Those are amazing and love the bottom one specially Daisy

I actually made 2 of the bottom ones- it was my first ever cross stitch and I took it up after an op about 12 years ago - i knew I needed something to stop me dashing about - in fact I started it in hospital still hoooked up to morphine lol - I was never any good at doing nothing Very Happy

My sister was a star when I was convalescing so I gave the first one to her as a thankyou
