Housekeeping first - I was only a few days behind but I think I've just about caught up with reading blogs, leaving comments and replying to those necessary. I like to try to keep up-to-date as much as possible but recently my stitching has been getting in the way. I can't think why!!!
I must also welcome new followers that have joined in 2015. I hope you are enjoying my stitching antics. For my more long-term followers, thank you for staying with me. You are all very much appreciated!
Now onto the Challenge piece. Not only is this design a lovely abstract representation of London but I also have great affection for the city - we live quite close to London, hubby used to work in Whitehall opposite Big Ben and I used to work in the financial area, watching the Gherkin being constructed from my office window. Frequent visits with the children have helped them appreciate the history and architecture of our Capital city, as well as allowing us to do the usual touristy things.

I'll leave you with a hint about tomorrow's start - live long and prosper!
Happy stitching

Another great start and choice of fabric for this lovely & colourful design :)
I love that fabric. And London is one of my favorite places to visit. I've been about 15 times. (From central USA)
Beautiful design and that fabric is gorgeous.... need to get me some of that colour!
Oh, and I forgot to add that I can't believe the blog is nearly a year old already, congratulations .... where has the last year gone?

Love it love it love it! Your fabric choice is perfect as always. I'm going to work on Paris later...You've inspired me!
I've seen a few people doing these "Pretty Little ...." designs and I love them. The London one is definitely on my "To Get" list!
