Slowly but surely he's starting to take shape! My Dad named him Billy so that's his name from now on! :wink:

Billy is already looking thoughtful. Definitely going to be another wonderful Wrendale Design to join your others. What a wonderful collection you will have.

:applesauce: :applesauce: Brilliant start Nicola. What a wonderful face he has I should say Billy Owl. Reminds me of the name Billy Elliott for some reason or other. This is going to be one fantastic picture when done & look forward to seeing this one again soon.

They really are wonderful designs Hannah Dale makes & we get to see the whole spectrum I think with the ones you have. Always a delight to see these pop up on here :D

Awwww thanks guys! @rotfl: Mabel! xxx

I had a day off today so managed to get a few hours stitching done on Billy. I was doing rather well until I noticed a loose stitch so thought I'd frog it and redo. I ended up having to frog a whole side down his face of light golden and golden brown thread! :anotherfrog: Took me an hour to sort it out!

I hate loose stitches! They happen to me far more often than actually having stitched a wrong colour. But sorting them out is just as frustrating. :tantrum:

Billy is taking shape really quickly, I think he's looking quite majestic already.
