It looks beautiful.

Have you seen someone has also produced a Sherlock cross stitch book?

Yes I saw that.  Tempted to buy it even though I can't do anything with a needle!

Seen the colouring book. For some unknown and strange reason, it was pre-ordered quite soon after I saw it.
Now I've to do is waiting.

I think this must prove that colouring books are not only for kids if they've made one of Sherlock.  I had a teacher one year who said that colouring is good for improving your fine motor skills.



Clueing for looks.

Coloring books for grown ups have been around for ages but they are currently having a burst of popularity.  My mom use to really enjoy doing them.  There are tons of different kinds on Amazon.

It's supposed to be relaxing/good therapy too, but I think I would just get a cramp in my hand.

I knew that adults coloured, but I wasn't really aware of adult colouring books that much.  I can see why they'd be popular, though.  You can be artistic even if you're not great at drawing.

I absolutely love colouring in, but can see it would just be another massive waste of my time.
I did once try and order this on line, but made a hash of it.
I will try again when I order the Special dvd.

It's arrived. Now, I'm going to be a bad student because on this weekend conference, I'm going to take it with and colour, colour, and colour some more.

One could be a bit disappointed with the "hidden" clues in the book. Easier than child's play.

I ordered 2 in error...( I will let you know if the 2nd ends up for grabs!)
Mine arrived yesterday and I have duly coloured the first page already...second one tonight.
Hubby is away, so I'm binge watching Sherlock and colouring along!

I love colouring books to relax, but didn't order this, because of the binding... I really hate it if my pictures are divided by the binding, and it's so hard to colour that part close to the binding. I prefer calender-like colourbooks, where you can later also take the pictures out and put on the wall. As far as I can see, this is not the case with this book

I really liked the theories about Mary's wedding ring, though.

I am so appalling at colouring in, I can't imagine ever wanting any of my pics on the wall!

Hubby gave me the Sherlock coloring book for Christmas.  However I am torn between actually coloring in it or keeping it pristine.  Perhaps I should buy a spare.  *giggle*

I bought two(by accident!), but gave the spare to my daughter.

Children typically color in their coloring books with crayons.  What do adults use for coloring?  Can't see paint working too well in a coloring book.

I use pencil crayons.

Some people use markers.  It just depends.  I use both colored pencils and crayons.  Good crayons.

I purchased this last year. I'm not a huge fan on the adult colouring books but I had to buy this one, and the Harry Potter one. I'm using pencils to colour them in. I'm finding it quite stressful as I'm awful at colouring and I want it to be perfect

Sounds like you have the same dilemma as me!
