After that he needed a bigger challenge , and as he likes fantasy type things , chose this Unicorn. He was working regular night shifts at the time as a carer , and this helped him to stay awake .
The Indian is a kit I bought him for Christmas , and it set his love for using even weave instead of aida. He decided to leave a couple of the arrow heads off as it looked good like this.
Then there is the Skull. We put this on the wall in our living room , and not one person commented on it , but the kids think it's cool .
Of course we can't forget the other half of the Eagle pair, which is done on aida as I hadn't used even weave before when we started these.
At the moment , he has another Indian , Teresa Wentzlers' "The Castle" and a Dragon Eye on the go , though not much has been done on any of them for a while.
Hope you've enjoyed seeing these stitches.
Thanks for dropping by,
Cath

Stunning work! I have a TW kit somewhere if I can find it do u think he might like it its no use to me?
Well done DH, my hubby would run screaming from the house if I got a kit for him, he has other skills and is great DIYer in the house.
Your hubby has done some fabulous work - well done him! So nice to hear of someone else with a stitching hubby - they're pretty rare, I hear. I got mine into stitching after we got married and he's done a fair bit. He like Egyptian designs and planes, boats, cars, etc. There really is a lot to choose from for male stitchers these days :) I look forward to seeing his future projects :)

It's always nice to hear about supportive significant others and even more fun to hear about ones that join in.
Hi Cath,
These are great pictures ! Ian has made a brilliant job of them all. I think the two eagles facing each other must look amazing. Well done both of you!
