Wow, I can't believe how quickly this stitched up! I have been mainly beadweaving for the last 8 years and have got used to projects taking quite a long time so to have the embroidery finished in less than an evening was a revelation! My son enjoyed helping too, he is in his schools sewing club so he was quite used to doing back stitch although he found working with the dark fabric difficult, so I did the up stitches and he did the down.

Next, I need to hide the back and fix the embroidery in the hoop, I'll be using Carina's great instructions http://carinascraftblog.wardi.dk/2010/06/embroidery-hoop-framing-tutorial.htmlSarahx
