Did you ever dream about crosstitching. I do all the time. I am obsessed. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and I am so tempted to get up and pick up that needle to get a few stitches in. I use to do this but I have fought the temptation since I have to get up so early every day and I would be exhausted. But its so hard.
Last year I bought this chart called Worlds Above by Midsummer Night Designs.
I have stitched lots of other things since but it keeps calling to me. I think it is the colors that I like, there are a few pretty colors in it that I have never stitched with before, and I couldn't stop thinking of them. Finally I fought temptation and started it the night before last.
Here is a picture of my work so far.
Isn't it pretty? It did call for 40ct but I am stitching it on 32 ct and it is pretty big. I can't wait to get home later to pick up my needle again.

Sharon, excellent progress. This is going to look so pretty, especially on the fabric you've chosen.
It's so pretty, Sharon - love the colors.
That IS pretty! I don't do 40 ct., lol. What a beautiful little baby boy-look at that smile!
What fabric is it that you are using, Sharon? It has such pretty markings to it.
Beautiful Sharon! I love the verse and I agree, the colors are lovely :o)
Wow you are fast! Very nice
I dream of having all the time I want to stitch. I love Worlds Above. Isn't stitching best when you're stitching something you couldn't wait to stitch?
What great new start on this wonderful design.
I day-dream about stitching all the time. When I'm driving somewhere I dream about what I will stitch on when coming back home, when I'm working at my desk I promise myself that I'm allowed to put a couple of stitches in when a part of my work is done, and when I'm stitching on something I dream of stitching on something else, lol. Aren't we all the same, lol?
Great start on Worlds Above, Sharon! It's going to be stunning.
Anthony is too adorable!!
Great start - love that design, no wonder you couldn't resist!
