Three Tatty Sailors

Tonight, I was determined to get this cross stitch finished. I definitely started it in 2016 - I did one of the bears as a Love Quilts square and then started the complete design to hang in my spare room.

I love all things Tatty Teddy, but the backstitch on these designs is so fiddly and time consuming! I did the actual cross stitch in a few weeks or so maximum, but the backstitch requires so much brain power and squinting. I'm certain it's not how it is on the chart, but I'm sure it'll look good once it's framed and on the wall!

My wedding cross stitch project is still ongoing - I'll post some photos of the progress soon! I've also got 2 more Love Quilts squares coming up - rocking horses and swirly heart (both repeat designs but different colours).
