The Giant Kiss

Sometimes you see something and instantly fall in love with it. I recently saw Heather  finishing her Emily Peacock 'Kiss' tapestry. The second I saw it I knew I wanted to replicate it.

I had two hurdles, the length of time it was predicted to take and the price.

It is predicted that it will take 6 months to complete. Heather said a more realistic time scale would be 12 months. I love my various crafts but I like to flit between projects. Would I stick with this and finish it?

Then there was the price. The large kits retail for around £80, I could neither afford nor justify this price. However, after a bit of time spent researching it I soon discovered that you can buy the wool and fabric for almost half of that price.

So, I have acquired a pattern chart, sourced the materials and begged a tapestry frame and I am all ready to go.
