it is soooo nice to be working on white- I can certainly work alot faster on it!! And im also enjoying the bright colours, so refreshing compared to the browns/whites in the tiger.

Mabel- he is the designer with wobbly lines :lol: This is the 2nd time I have used DMC threads on an anchor design, the first was a humphreys corner design, and I couldn't see a difference, but this time there seems to be more of a contrast between the colours, In the picture of the finished design the brown on the pot blends with the orangy/yellow better!(hope this makes sense, bit hard to explain :? ) I have usedAnchor threads in the past but I prefere DMC-I find it smoother to stitch with!

Thanks Nic :D The Winnie the Pooh were really easy and quick-until it came to the grass- Way too many fractional stitches in all sorts of directions :roll:

Well i've finished my flowers over the weekend, but had'nt really had time to sort out a pic, but have now so here it is:

Have to press it though- blinking hoop marks!!

It was really fun to stitch!!

Just started my next one: Garden Glory(Anchor) haven't had much time on it though so will post when theres some actual progress :lol:
