My first finished for 2009. Could you believe it ? Considering the year is nearly the end. LOL Oh well, I haven't been stitching much lately anyhow.
I changed the borders from blue to purple. It was great to have full sets of DMC as you can easily convert the colours. It was suggested to me to make it more appropriately (wait for it) ''girly" Marai Van Scarrenburg initially design this for a boy but I changed it for my daughter instead and I think it looks perfect.
Thanks for looking

It's been very busy. Hopefully it will settle down soon.
School holiday has started now, the wife had taken the girls to visit her sister for a few days. I had to stay in Canberra due to work, so I'm bacheloring alone at home. Which is great but I do miss the girls. |
