I have this Santa cross stitch given as a freebie last year i think. Last weekend i made a start, zooming along real well i thought. I'd started in one area & wanted to continue using that colour so i counted carefully several times, or so i thought, the number of squares & merrily went on my way stitching. Bugger those areas didn't match. Unpick that first area & hope for the best again. Nope went to add another colour & Something not right still. About this time i was seriously considering binning the darn thing. It's not like this was my first cross stitch either. :)
So for FNwF hosted by Cheryll i was determined to get it done. I'd stitched quite a bit when i thought i should take a photo to post on Facebook FNwF. :)
Almost done
just a few stitches where the green thread is & then it is onto the black outlines.
I'd been worried my desert roses had carked it as they were taking a long time to get their leaves back. They'd all been nicely repotted & the stems weren't showing any die off so i couldn't figure what was wrong. Finally after weeks & weeks success leaves were appearing. I've been keeping a close eye for flowers but only 1 has flowered so far(i have 4 desert roses)
