WIP - Egyptian Extravagance
Hi all, thought I would share my current project with you all. It's an Anchor kit that I have been working on for about a month now.
I'll try and keep the updates coming fortnightly, only because when I look at the pics I take weekly it doesn't look like I have made much progress.
This is what the finished product should look like...
This is where I am currently up to...
Could be a while before this one sees a frame.

Re: WIP - Egyptian Extravagance
Projects don't HAVE to be finished within a month, you know -- I love seeing people's large projects develop over a longer period (even if, or perhaps precisely because, I'm very bad at big projects myself). And this one looks to be a stunner!

I love it
Re: WIP - Egyptian Extravagance
Excellent start! You've got loads done in just a month. Do you stitch every day? I can only stitch big projects at the weekends so I'm a really slow stitcher.

Re: WIP - Egyptian Extravagance

Re: WIP - Egyptian Extravagance
Thanks for the encouraging comments everyone, makes me want to head in and do some more now.
I do try and stitch everyday for a while, usually while the wife and I watch TV at night after the little ones have gone to sleep (after I have done my chores of course)
