I am going to start a new thread for my 2011 projects but thought I should just show how I got on with the last of my Christmas Presents. When I last posted I ran out of the threads needed to complete the blackwork samurai and geisha. Having ordered them from Tandem Cottage I knew that the delivery would be a little slow but with the ice and snow I was starting to panic that they would never arrive so I had to tell my father that his present might be a little delayed. On lunchtime Monday the 20th of December they finally arrived, I decided to give it a shot to get in done in time for Christmas. After pulling all nighters I managed to complete it at 8pm on Christmas Eve. It was really hard work but I was extremely glad I finished it, my Dad was over-the-moon at it. Here it is completed and framed:
