finally finished the nativity window cross stitch

Well I finally finished the nativity window scene that I started 3 years ago all the cross stitching was done quite quickly but it was the backstitching that took its time, it has now been washed and is drying naturally in the airing cupboard, will iron it either tomorrow or Saturday then take it to the framers to be framed hope to put a picture on here soon

although i didn't do any stitching today, I did take some old cardmaking stuff down to a local  community group for them to use and hopefully make some cards to sell to help keep there running costs down.

hope to finish off  the nativity window scene tomorrow night only a little bit of back stitching to be done on the right hand side and a bit on the arches above the windows
