Congratulations on the beautiful finish! The update on the WIP is also great. I never was fond of penguin designs, but this particular one already makes me smile. It is kind and cheering up(if such a word exists in English). Happy stitching!

What fantastic updates!! Congratulations for Starry Night. It is so beautiful and I know how much work that was. :applesauce: :applesauce:
Love the stained glass and your "penguin". And I hope you can find those boxers for your son! Made me chuckle! That is exactly what I would do!

Thanks. :)

I have to decide whether to frame Starry Night, or make a pillow.

I would frame it, as it involved too much work to be sentenced to becoming a cushion. But anyway it is absolutely beautiful.

Here’s the stocking I had been asking help in the other thread. You can see above the ball with the tree, where I pulled the stitches out twice. I’m not concerned though because when I put the stitches back in it will not show at all.

I think it’s going to look cute when finished. There is a lot of backstitching, and the missed x’s are where beads will go.

Thanks everyone.

It is a fun stitch. Unfortunately, between the extreme heat and kids coming sooooo early in the morning, I am so tired I’m not working on it as much as I’d like.
