This project is living up to it’s name! After such long sleep I’ve picked it up again, it’s good to be back ^_^

March 8th-9th 2014
Backstitch bottom gold, wing & face.

Wow! This WIP is 3 years old!
Start again with top green tail. All the colours are so similar that it’s quite hard to stitch!

June 17th- 2018
Here I go again! Cross-stitching don’t seem to affect my carpal tunnel. Crocheting is worst!
Anyway still stitching the top half of the bird. The tails are full of colours that required full concentration.
