:whoop: yay! :whoop:

Nicola, it's fantastic, well done indeed, you should be proud of yourself, what was that 6 weeks? and to be so neat and even on such a timescale :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

Nicola, just think whenever you see a photo of that kit, whether it's in real life, on bothy threads website or indeed sewand so, you will be able to say I stitched that, I know I will think to myself " a lady from the forum stitched that model" when it comes in May.

:whoop: Well done you :whoop:




it's making me smile too

Oh my gosh, I'm in love again! Look at that face! And those little feed and hands. :-)

And mainly, look at that beautiful stitching.

Thank you everyone! I'm rather sad that he's finished (sent him away by Special Delivery today) as I loved stitching him! But have a LOT of other projects to do which I need to prepare for now! xxx

Wow, Nicola, you stitched him beautifully and in such a short time.

He is gorgeous and the colours of his fur amazing. He does put a smile on my face too.

I received a lovely email from Kate yesterday saying she'd received the hamster (in her words "he hopped in today") and she said I'd stitched him beautifully and she'd been watching my progress pics on the Facebook group. She'd send me out another but what with the trade shows she hasn't got anything at the moment. I'm OK with that as I have two or three I have to do over the next few months. Maybe later on in the year I will save time for another one? So happy and pleased that she likes the finished result I loved stitching him! :wub:

P.S. Will be going back to finishing Billy in the very near future ;) xxx

I am not surprised she was "pleased with him" you did a magnificent job of stitching him. Now to see updates of Billy again.

Well of course she's pleased with him, you did such a fabulous job of stitching him up and in what was it? 6 weeks?

I predict he will be very popular when he goes on sale :D

you never know I just might have to get him myself, I must be strong, I must be strong

Billy's all kitted up and ready to go again after his little break! Thought I'd better do it asap before I start on another as I'm notorious for starting and not finishing projects. Need to be a lot stricter with myself! Can't wait to get back stitching him again! :whoop:

P.S. Ignore the crisp boxes they are still filled with ornaments from when we were getting the living room floor done last week! :roll:
