However I am back and although I may not be able to focus all of my attention on this site I'd like to have my little space on the internet to ramble about films, books and maybe share some of my latest cross stitching adventures with the people who want to read it.
So I recently finished this little 8 inch piece for a friend and it took me quite a while due to the apparent lack of orange toned colours I owned, so after spending a fortune stocking up on DMC threads (which you can purchase real cheap from my new favourite site Sew and So) I began working on this project. Sadly I don't have many progress pictures because I simply forgot to take them, eek! However I do have a before and after picture to share with you.

This project in total took me around 15-20 hours, which is really quite slow for such a small project but I found working on darker Aida much tougher in low light; and I seem to only stitch when I'm in bed these days.
As for the pattern I normally either make my own or buy them on Etsy, this one is from Etsy and you can grab this one here for a mere £4.62!
