2011 Resulution

To finish this cross stitch kit.

It's a needle case, and I bought the kit with my grandmother at the V&A seriously long time ago. All my cross stitch sort of got put to one side when I started knitting again. And I know that I haven't touched this for over 7 years. I started it... maybe 10 years ago?

All I have to do is the flowers at the top of the vases, and a line of stitching all around, and the back stitch for detail.

The kit I think also had a scissors case too, as the chart for the needle case has a scissors case chart too, but if so it's gone west a long time ago, along with the picture from the front of the kit.

My only resolution for this year. I think I can keep this one!

I'm embarassed to admit I have a pillow cover I started probably 20 years ago and only needs a small bit to be done. Maybe I'll let you be an inspiration to me and I'll finish it. I also have a lovely Christmas tablecloth that I've been working on for so long I can't even remember.

I haven't cross-stitched in SO long--considering where my eyes are going, I can't see that being picked up again.

It'll take one-two days max? No pressure.
