The One thousandth

 post on this blog.

Wow! when I started in in June 2013 I don't think I quite envisioned how many years or posts might follow.

And for the 1000th post do I have something amazing or special to share? 

Nope.

I have something small, a new start on a little kit on some very very stiff Aida. I might have thought the material provided for BFF SAL 20 was stiff, but this is even more so.

It is the first time I have needed to get a pin to make holes in the material first before Being able to make fractional stitches using the cross stitch needle.

You can see in the picture below the four squares a hole in the middle for those fractional stitches Normally I can manage to get the needle through but in this instance preparatory Holes were required
