Counted cross stitch start

 I've started a counted cross stitch kit that I've had for a while now.

Kind of slow going because my eyes aren't what they were and

I can't stitch as long as I would like

but I really want to get this done in a timely manner.

Our theme this year at church is

Standing on God's Promises

So I thought this is the perfect time to do this counted cross stitch

and a perfect gift to give Pastor Leatherman and Kathy.

This is what I've have done so far.

It looks purple in the picture but it is blue.

I'm hoping if I post my progress it will give me incentive to keep at it.
