So I've been up all night. Kian's up and in the shower. I've managed to finish the facial detail back stitch chart (an hour fiddling in photoshop after a few days of getting the design down on paper), the key, the main chart (in symbols - faff I refer to my last post on cross-stitcher settings over that), the buying info (knowing how many skeins of cotton to buy for the project) and the notes for L to follow/understand why somethings aren't as you'd expect them.
All that needs to be done for this project now is the all over back-stitch chart - ie the background back-stitch (which I may ask if I can get it done for when they come back from holiday (Kian's family are off to Scotland on Saturday for a week). Also need to get the chart, notes, key and buying stuff to kParents so that they can go to Hobbycraft and get the skeins needed (thankfully already got the aida).
I now do not intend to go to bed, but instead am going to get a few other jobs done, like getting the airers in from the garden and to see how wet the clothes are (they got *soaked* yesterday).
Once I've done that I may look at going to the park - before the rain.
Also need to get my Project 365 up-to-date - any of you wanting to see it???
Time to go breakfast the kitteh - she's back to 3 meals a day rather than 5 she was last week!
