THE RETURN OF THE UFP's...

Hey guys, hope you are all well and looking forward to your weekend!

I feel I must apologise for my previous post which was a bit rambley.  I appear to have had an attack of the verbals, which I hope didn't detract from the stitching :/

Anyway, enough of that.

As you can see from the title of this blog, I have decided to have another go at getting rid of all those outstanding stitchy projects that have been languishing in my sewing box for eons!  It's been a project that's been very stop/start for several years and long-term followers may recall this post from February 2011:

I didn't realise it had been that long!

I put all the smaller outstanding UFP's into one of my sewing bags and made a list of what was outstanding and how long it has been outstanding.  My aim is to try and pick one project a month -- so far I am falling down on that!

Anyway, I took the project featured in the 2011 post as my starting point, because all that was left was the back stitching, and I managed to complete it in a few evenings!!!

And here it is...

Have to say that I am not 100% happy with the finished article.  I suspect that may be because I have worked this on aida when the pattern suggested evenweave.  Back then I had not used evenweave yet and was not comfortable with it.  If I decided to do it again (unlikely), I would use evenweave and it would look so much better!

So that's one project ticked off the list ... only another nine to go :D

Well that's me done blogging for today!

Till next time ... keep Kalm and cross-stitch! xxx
