I bought this cross stitch 25 plus years ago. At our Craft and Chat people turn up with un-finished objects all the time.
I was busy doing other things, but it kept re-appearing and whispering to me, I am un-loved and un-finished!!!!
So over Christmas this year I got down to it.
I had the presence of mind to put small pieces of thread against each colour years ago so I had an idea which colour was right.
Applying more recently acquired knowledge, I firmly decided which way was the right way up and stuck to it this time!!
I now have a slightly grubby finished article.
The big question is …. to wash or not to wash.
And shall I make it into a cushion using the same material on the back or a sturdier material to stabilise it?
Watch this space.
All suggestions gratefully received.
