Brilliant!

I agree. This is perfect!!!

I finished this little guy yesterday. It’s Star Gazing, a Margaret Sherry design from Bothy Threads. It will be a card when it grows up. The chart called for a single strand of the gold for the lettering, but I doubled it (because I didn’t like the single strand effect).

How cute! (I love Margaret Sherry designs.)

A lovely early start on Christmas card making. Love it.

Another sweetie

I am beginning to want to make cross stitch Christmas cards the problem is I am not sure my family would appreciate them. The pictures for the cards are so nice maybe they should be considered equally as decorations to be brought out each year.

Yes so do I!

I have the first of her Bookazines....but it's still in France!
I saw one for sale at £30+ on Ebay so I must get mine sent from France.

Adorable. Going to be hard to wait to send it. Also very smart to start Christmas stitching early!

I stitched this Frony Ritter Designs series for my kids last year, and my sister asked me to stitch them for her. I just finished the first one: Frosty Wishes You a Safe Chrsitmas. it’s stitched on 28 count linen.

Nice. That fabric's fun, too.

A lovely little project, and yes isn't that fabric fun!

Perfect fabric!

As the last three posts said, what perfect and fun fabric for a fun little guy!

I can understand your sister wanting one of this cute design. Well Don.e

I have no idea when or why I bought this fabric, but I’m glad I did. The piece is big enough for all three designs.

Good plan....unless what you really thought that you had got left behind in The Move!

He’s a cut little fella.
