There's wording to add yet and still the grass to add in both sections, and I also need to stitch the date but I'm holding off on that for now.
The sampler is for my niece, she's supposed to be getting married in September and everything's already booked for then but who knows if it will go ahead or not. Being in lockdown at the moment, it's hard to imagine that large gatherings will be allowed by September, but we'll see.
I'm quite new to cross stitch but I'm really enjoying working on this sampler. It's a joy to see the picture emerge bit by bit.
It's lovely to see your progress. X
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful Jo, I used to do a lot of cross stitch but I find it strains my eyes now, your niece is going to love this. xx
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous, Jo :) Your niece will love it! I love the little doves above the church. I don't watch the news and I ask John not to tell me anything from the news unless it's good news. Stay safe and take care. Jane x
ReplyDeleteIt's delightful Jo. What a wonderful gift for your niece. It must be hard for her not knowing if she can go ahead or not with her wedding, it is such an important day in your life isn't it? I do hope that things become clearer for her soon.
ReplyDeleteJo,it's beautiful and it doesn't look like you are new to it. I do hope it all goes ahead for them in September. Take care, stay safe and huggles.
ReplyDeleteIts beautiful, what a lovely gift.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful, Jo. Your niece will love it. Hopefully, by September, things will be better! That bride still needs to eat a sandwich or two! LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's really beautiful. I do hope the wedding can go ahead as planned for your niece.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful, Jo. I hope this special day can go ahead for them in September.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely Jo, your niece will love it.
ReplyDeleteYes, in the present situation who knows what restrictions may still be around in September, I do hope things become clearer soon.
All the best Jan
its beautiful x
ReplyDeleteIt looks great Jo and i'm sure they will love it. It's hard to imagine any social gatherings at the moment, but who knows September is a way off yet so fingers crossed everything will go ahead for them.
ReplyDeleteCannot believe you are new to this!! it is going to be a beautiful treasured gift
ReplyDeleteIt's really coming to together now and looks beautiful Jo.
ReplyDeleteOh, simply lovely!xxx
ReplyDeleteI can see why you're enjoying it, it's quite cute. What a wonderful gift it will make. I have one I made for Hubby and Me, though it's stamped not counted x stitching. I started with stitched and then did counted which I liked better. I've made several for people as gifts and they're always so well received. I wish them the best of luck. Hope the wedding is able to proceed, but like you am doubtful large groups will be a thing to do come September. Stay well.

It's very pretty and incredibly neat! I hope you all get to get together in September, it would be such a shame to have to postpone, it must be heartbreaking for those who have had to do so.

It's so pretty Jo, they'll love it.
ReplyDeleteMy daughters wedding late June has been cancelled :-(
