Thanks for all the advice.
I've decided that I'm just going to stick with one design and repeat the border on the back. Of course I made that decision after I'd ordered the other LHN pattern, but I already have a potential 'victim' lined up for that one.
Elsewhere I'm sorry to say that although I've been busy stitching I can't show you anything as it's a PIF. I know how I'm finishing this one but may have to order some fabric for finishing it with. I'm going to wait until I've done the border before I make that decision.
I finished another book yesterday Teacher Man by Frank McCourt.
You may recognise him as the author of Angela's Ashes and this book finishes off his life story. It follows on from 'Tis and recounts his experiences as a teacher in New York. As an ex-teacher I found it a totally fascinating read that really does capture how lonely and intimidating it can feel standing at the front of a class, along with those magical moments that make it a wonderful place to be.

I loved Angela's Ashes it was a fantastic read so will check this one out too, thanks!
Glad you got the dilemma sorted. I usually go with repeating a bit of the pattern & adding initials & the year on the back - easy & makes it a nice memento. :0)
Enjoyed AA's but was a bit disappopinted with 'Tis - will have to watch out for this one & see how it compares.... & I'd like to know more of his story. Thanks. :0)
