and another cover kit, we looked at the pattern before we settled on this one. It met out current criteria for a SAl.
Not too big, not to much dotting about and not too much backstitch, even if it isn't just outlining backstitch.
Added to all that we had previously considered a Toffee Cow (they will always be that to me because of the Highland Toffee from my childhood with a picture of this breed of bovine on the wrapper) of much greater complexity.
I had already sorted the thread for this so I did a bit of bobbinating, well one skeins worth whilst Roni sorted hers then we made a start.
Just not my night for it, I made a single stitch mistake on the bit in the middle. I was going to leave it and just work around it. Then I realised I had my thread card turned around and ended up using the wrong brown. So out it had to come, back to the point I went wrong.
and then start stitching again. To finish the night here.
As per our ohps agreement I can have the time that did not equal productive stitching back off camera.
So about 1:20. .
I will add the link over to my BFF's blog once she has posted.
