As Eel said in her previous post, she has chosen her pattern and 18ct Aida for the competition. As for me, I still have till the end of the month to decide whether I want to change the pattern or not. I'm hesitating to buy it at the moment, after all, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. ;) I'm test driving my 18ct Aida, it's pretty easy to stitch on, but I do need a brighter light to work on it, so I'm not sure what the 22ct Aida will be like. I should be able to finish my tiny design by Friday, and can test out the 22ct over the weekend. So, my fabric should be locked down by Monday!

Eel's been cracking her whip, making me get all the 'ingredients' for her. ;) So far, I've got most of the threads as well as a meter of 18ct Aida. Here's what it looks like so far.



Notice a colour trend here? :D And the colours that I haven't gotten yet are ALSO purple! Oh well, I suppose mine would be similar, seeing how that it's also purply.

Whenever I start a new project, it never looks like that as a lot of my threads are already half used. It all looks so nice and new, I feel like rushing out to buy all the threads that I need as well. Only...27 days till the start of the competition!
