Another triumph! I do love these.
How did I miss the Turtle? It must have been whilst we we travelling back and forth.
The frame really sets this off.

These are all so adorable and fun! I especially loved November's turkey, but the mitten is perfect!

Lovely work - so neatly done, and boy does it show up in projects like these when it isn't !

Oh that is a real cutie. Love it heaps.

I finished this a few days ago. It’s Twisted Heart by Ink Circles, done on unknown fabric from stash and using Sulky Petites.

I do like Ink Circles designs! What a lovely colour combination you've chosen, quite unusual. Did you enjoy using the Sulky threads?

WOW I love it. Such different colours and lovely fabric a fantastic combination.

I do like using the Sulky threads. I wouldn’t use them for every design but they are fun and easy. DMC has a bit of a sheen and the Sulky does not. I have almost the entire set so I figured I should start using them,

That is just lovely!! Elegant.

I know I shared these (Mill Hill) when I finished them, but here they are again, this time cut out and either backed with a magnet (the boot and the barn) or finished as an ornament (the camper).



This is Snowflake Kisses by The Stitching Bear. I changed “kisses” to “hugs” and left off the border as it will be a card (for my son and daughter-in-law) and won’t fit with the border. (I’m usually not a huge fan of borders.) I added a couple snowflake buttons, and I have a carrot nose button on the way. If it fits, I’ll use it and if not, I’ll just go with the stitched nose. (Note: The carrot nose is supposed to be backstitched, but when I did that, it totally looked like a penis. I frogged it, obviously.)

Your snowman is adorable, cross-stitched carrot and all - it will be interesting to see if the carrot button is actually an improvement on your own creative adaptation!

What a clever idea to attach magnets, they all look lovely.

I love the snowman and the sentiment.

Love these!!

Ditto on all of the above posts!!! Love these!!!

Your needle has been busy that is for sure. I love the 3 little ones, they look really fabulous. What a great sentiment verse on the other one. Well Done

I’ve had the “hugs” chart for awhile now but the time was right to finally stitch it. I’ve seen my son and d-i-l a few times during the pandemic, but always socially distanced. I miss the hugs.

Yes hugs are important and they will come back in due time. We are cleared of almost all restrictions which is wonderful. I guess there are advantages to live thousands of miles of other lands.

I have a couple little guy finishes.

Frony Ritter Designs “Santa Wishes You a Safe Christmas”

What a cute little snowman , and what a clever little fellow he is, juggling his snowballs.

How fitting, Santa's has a mask this year, didn't your chief medical officer in the States say he had visited Father Christmas and made sure he had had the Vaccine? Very wise of Santa to wear his mask until the full effect takes place.

Lovely stitching.

That snowman is so cheerful!
