Work In Progress

Don't Worry, Be HappyI stitched this design last year as a gift for a friend when we left London. I've posted the pic here as it's the one I'm stitching again as a present for DS's friend. It's actually half a design - she's got her chap with her in the real thing. I changed the colours from the original, and I'm changing them again this time. I've found some fabric which is a medium strawberry pink with dusty blue, mauve and a littel creamy yellow, so I've gone for those colours. I'm still doing the outline so far - with a bit of a push I may finish it tonight. Quite nice after that as I won't need to follow a pattern, just fill in the blanks, like a colouring book! I swithered a bit about using more pastel colours with the black outline (if I'd thought more, I could have softened it to a deep grey), but now I think it will be OK. That's the only thing I'm not as fussed for with those Bang On The Door designs - the rather harsh colours. But I always change them anyway, so hey!
