So much white in this one. Progress is slow because I'm nearly cross-eyed trying to see my stitches. 😵‍💫🪡

Started a new cross stitch project tonight. It's hard to see the little bit I've done, because it's white on white. It's going to keep me busy for a while. 🦮🪡

The Love Bug is finished. Top stitch on the flowers was optional, so I decided to leave them as they are, and just do the number plate. I'm very pleased with the result. 🚗🩷🪡

Finished the cross stitch tonight. Just a little bit of back stitch to do tomorrow, and the Love Bug will be finished. I think it looks good. 🚗🩷🪡

When I started stitching this, I started dead centre. I had a moment tonight where I thought I was going to run out of fabric at the top. Phew!
Getting close to the finish line now. 🚗🩷🪡

Got myself a new notebook, so that I can keep track of all of my cross stitch projects. It's the little things that keep me sane. 📓🪡
