Finally, I've decided to do another cross stitch and I chose to finish my pending needle work which is "Guardian Angel" by Nora Corbett. Corbett's designs are fantastic and she has a collection of angels and fairies which are easy to follow.

The pattern I'm doing right now originally is stitched on a 32 count English Rose Linen, stitched area is 19" x 13" with a count of 304 x 206 and also stitched (2 over 2) DMC floss. Blends are one strands each. I decided to stitch it on a 11 count beige Aida cloth, strands are 3 over 3 and blends are one strands each. So the stitched area will be much more bigger than the original pattern. There are 58 pcs of DMC threads, 1 Kreinik metallic, 2 Caron Collection and 3 beads by Mill Hill. I hope I'll finish this by October. Here are some photos of the unfinished work.
