Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Rose, I was only disappointed that I didn't take a photograph before the backstitching just to show how "alive" he looks compared to prior to the backstitching - and no I won't unpick it

Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Great work on Tigger! ...and happy stitching with Pooh!
Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Tigger looks awesome and bouncy as ever And a great start on Pooh bear!
I would love to do a Winnie the Pooh series in cross stitch and put a typical quote each char says along the bottom (e.g. "T-I-double G-ER! That spells Tigger!" )

Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Yes I think I'll do Eeyore without grass. I'm thinking I may need to add grass onto Winnie as I miscalculated the centre of design (I think I may have counted the grass within the stitch count!!)

Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Your doing really well, I've always wanted to do an afghan but never felt brave enought, maybe when one of my girls has a baby i might venture in doing one lol

Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Pooh looks great!! Eeyore is adorable but he is smiling that is very unusual.

Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Great job on Pooh bear, his bouquet of flowers! Awaiting Eeyore

Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
I think I'm going to enjoy this!
Just one question: erm... what's afghan? I think of Afghan hounds (who would object to being stitched, I feel!); and afghan blankets/coats (though I dunno what they look/feel like).
But afghan cross stitch fabric?

Re: My first SAL - Winnie the Pooh Afghan
Gave up on my Lifeguards Crest - it just didn't look right Twiddled with the pattern a bit and eventually lost my rag!!! So back to my lurvly Winnie the Pooh afghan. Kym - if you want a loan of the pattern once I've done, please shout and I'll gladly send it on. It's all complete but a bit dog-eared, chewed and the back page (just the cover) is torn but I picked it up from the car boot for 10p so was too good a bargain to leave !!!

PS. Will post piccie once Eeyore's done - just got to finish his muzzle, butterfly and back-stitch.
