Wrendale Designs 'A Waddle and a Quack' *FINISHED*
I've started doing this design from my World of Cross Stitching magazine (issue 244) as I'm a great fan of Hannah Dale and her Wrendale Designs. Check out her website She has also released 4 new cross stitch kits in association with Bothy Threads which I will have to buy at some point! I'm stitching it on Charles Craft 14 count lite oatmeal aida to add to the rustic look. Only doing little bits here and there when I get the time but slowly does it

Re: Wrendale Designs 'Darling Duck'
that is going to be one great project to stitch! You have already made a good start too!
Wendy, have you got the Puffin yet? I'm sure there aren't a lot of Puffin designs around so you'd probably grab it while you can. That is just my objective opinion with no intention of encouraging you.

Re: Wrendale Designs 'Darling Duck'
What a fun design and I am looking forward to seeing your updates on it!! Awwwwww Wendy, it's too bad the puffin design is only available as a card so far, but hoping it will soon also become a cross stitch design---sounds cute as can be!!

Re: Wrendale Designs 'Darling Duck'
That is one adorable duck. I may have to check into purchasing that magazine. We have ducks and they are so much fun.

Re: Wrendale Designs 'A Waddle and a Quack'
It looks very realistic for a smallish design

Re: Wrendale Designs 'A Waddle and a Quack'
I've been popping on here to check things for a while but haven't posted or, indeed, done any cross stitch for months! I rectified that this morning but continuing with my Mallard. Managed to get most of the face done and a bit of backstitch. Determined to finish this whether it takes weeks or months!
