Cross-stitching

I have been cross-stitching again, and it's fun! Late last year I bought myself a cross-stitch book, Storyland Cross Stitch by Sophie Simpson, aka Delilah. You can find her work here. I am totally in love with the book! My first project is, of course, probably the most demanding one in the whole thing. I am going to make this handsome owl into a canvas bag. I am stitching it on bed sheet fabric and not all my stitches are perfectly the same size. However, I love it and I think this pattern allows itself perfectly to not being perfect!
