I've seen some lovely kits and patterns lately but these cute little penguins really stood out for me. I love stitching animals and birds in particular (plus I love penguins anyway) so these little guys have to go on my wish list IMMEDIATELY!!!



What would you put on your wish list?

Now THAT is just cuteness personified---and since I don't have anything pressing on my wish list, this one could well end up on one

Those are super sweet.

They are jut precious.Wish list???how about more stitching time,less worry and no domestic issues.

Those are so cute! I have so many WIPs I shouldn't add anything, but I need a piece of Quebec blue fabric to stitch Brodeuse Bressane's Fleur de Lys blackwork design. I think I have some B5200 to stitch it with. I want to stitch it for my husband, born and raised in Quebec.

Amen

Yeah, I have so much stuff to stitch that my wish list is mostly very distant wishes. One thing I keep looking at is the Lanarte Butterfly Girl

But I probably won't buy it because it's only available as a kit and although I normally like that, with this one I'd have to change the color scheme to match the place I want to put it, so the floss would go to waste. I wish I could find a chart but I really do have lots of other stuff to stitch. It is awfully pretty.... Maybe after I finish a few things....

I managed to find the whole kit on Ebay for just a fraction of the RRP price! Now it'll sit and stare at me begging to be stitched but I have a couple more I have to finish before I start on it

Especially time -- of any and all sorts, I'm not picky

I daren't make a 'wish list' I've Already got too much I want to do!!!

I like to think stitching is cheaper than therapy to keep me sane so I splurge once in a while and buy the patterns that speak to me and make me happy

I stitch mainly Mira's, HAEDs, and Joan Elliott's though. Not a huge fan of kits even though there are some really nice ones out there but I more often than not switch out the fabrics and the threads to different things. I have started buying all of the older Mira's I like as they might go out of print eventually and I like to be safe and covet my pretties hehe...

I meant to say earlier "aren't they just the nicest babes!"

Enjoy stitching those!

Awwww!!! Penguins are my favorite! That project looks so adorable

I really, really, really want this one! http://www.stitcher.co.uk/view-product. ... stitch-kit" target="_blank

Those squirrel's ears look odd. Almost like rabbit ears. Do squirrels look like that in the UK?

As for my wish list...I want to make this,

My mom had painted a very detailed paint-by-number of this, and it was in our kitchen as long as I can remember.

I googled, and your squirrels do have different ears than ours,

Yes they have furry ear tufts in winter. I love red squirrels

The squirrels are so cute! Please get them and stitch them for us.

I have a zillion things on my wish list, but here's one that keeps calling to me:

super cute!!

I love these little Amish scenes from Diane Graebner. I ordered the autumn one for my mother to stitch and I think it would be a great project for both of us to stitch one from each season. It would suit her decor and would love to stitch a project with her!

I just think they're so cute!!

Now why did I look at that link to the Squirrels - that is so gorgeous and I think Riolis are a US company so manybe I can get it from a US site where the exchange rate is better than the UK. Mmmmmm

Definitely on the top of my wish list now. - in fact the only one on it!!!
