I finished this cutie last night. He is Christmas Penguin by Dimensions. I changed the fabric to a 16 count Aida, periwinkle prism opal. The picture shows the sparkle but not the actual beautiful blue color.

To be honest, the fabric was a pain to work on. The holes were not as clearly defined as I'm used to and even though it is only 16 count, I had to use a magnifier sometimes. I think maybe it just shrunk more in the dyeing process than usual. It also was not as soft as other aida I've used. That being said, I absolutely love the fabric and it was worth the extra trouble.
