Cross stitch progress

I think it's very easy to tell which is the before and which is the after shot!

I am trying to do at least an hour each evening before I go to bed. Sometimes I even get two hours in, but sometimes I don't get any time at all! I am aiming to have this finished for Christmas this year. Then I will start the next one.......hmmm......7 people in this family......one

stocking per year......I guess my evenings are full for the next 6 1/2 years!!! :o)

Not a bad proposition since I am enjoying this so very much. What I am not enjoying so much - all of the end of year events that having 5 active children bring to our days and evenings. AAHHH!! Only 8 more school days to go and then blessed summer time!
