Cosy progress at last!

Hi Fellow Frolicers!

Yesterday I finally had some time and energy to do some frolicing again, which felt great!

I decided to have a go at finishing my Cosy cushion. I ran out of threads for this project a while back, but I have now managed to buy new ones so therefore I was able to pick it up again:) I've stitched it on 11 count aida to make the cushion a bit bigger, and I have also changed some of the colours and patterns from the original chart designed by Felicity Hall in Cross Stitcher magazine (issue 301).

So here is where I was when I picked it up yesterday...


...and here's where I put it down in the evening:


I'm really happy with my progress and I expect I can finish it over the weekend. I also decided to add an extra border around it to increase the size of the cushion even more.
I've really enjoyed working on this fun Cosy cushion and can't wait to celebrate it with an Happy Dance!
