Old Time Locomotives - The General

Going thru my WIP tote, I found a cross stitch project that I started a few months ago. It got put up and buried. So I have only worked on it one day.  The project can be found in For the Love of Cross Stitch March 1992 on pages 18-19. It is 2 of 2 in the Old-time Locomotives Collection.  I like that it only used a few colors so its easy to travel with. It seems to be a fast stitching because most of the colors are in straight lines - you don't have to constantly look back at the pattern.

For my supplies I am using Charles Craft 14 ct Ivory Aida & DMC floss.
