I am still working on the Margaret Sherry Purrfect Partners Stitch Kit from the CrossStitcher (UK) magazine issue 196. Right now I just don't feel like taking a pic. Maybe I will take one tomorrow. It looks so terrible from the graphing I did on the fabric but it makes life easier with counting.
Now I remember why I don't like using kits: the threads are too short and it's a guessing game trying to figure out which color is which *sigh. I wish I did it on Monaco, I haven't used 14ct aida in ages. Maybe I will do this one again sometime. It'd look cute as a card or on a bag.
I am thinking about using those progress bars like so many others have in their sidebars. It would be cool to see for me, and may help with motivation to "see" how I am doing in the grand scheme of things.

I think progress bars are a good idea. :)
when you said you were stitching a Margaret Sherry kit, I didn't realise you were stitching the same thing I was !!!
And obviously we encountered the same frustrations... But I think it will be worth it inthe end.
I think it will look good on aida. It will give a more modern look. I prefer to use linen for americana and vintage patterns.
Hang in there ! At least we can motivate each other in stitching it !
That is a very cute pattern, I too think it will look good on aida. Hang on there and keep working on it and before you know it, you will be finished :)
