Last week I picked up a 40 by 60 " piece of embroidery linen for £2 in a charity shop so I've just spent about 4 hours tracing the panel from the BT that Jnr wants to embroider. Unfortunately his hand isn't steady enough to do the pencil work or he'd have done that part himself.
Excuse the the poor quality pic. It used up a little over a third of the piece I got. He'll hem it and running stitch it to the frame he used for the last one. He's a few books on the BT so can get the colours and details from those. The last one took the best part of a year to do, keeps him entertained. The official kits are extortionate, luckily the last one was another charity shop find. I've been picking up bargain bags of pure wool from carboots etc so we shouldn't run out of wool
