Nicola! You've made wonderful progress! I must see more! I absolutely love Wrendale. I have 2 kits on the way from Sew and So that I'm so excited to stitch! This one is on my wish list though, since you've done such a beautiful job! :wub:

Thank you everyone! That's great Brittany which ones have you gone for? There are so many! I have about eight in my stash with two coming out next year that I would like :roll: :wink:

I've decided to do this one after the hen. It's called 'The Lookout' and will be the first Wrendale I stitch on my new Elbesee floor frame I'm getting for Christmas! :whoop:

Nicola- I ordered "practically prefect" and "amongst the foxgloves" but oh my goodness! The koalas are adorable too and I'd be over the moon if she ever made a camel design!!

The owl is great! I can't wait to see you stitch that as well!!!

Oh I have those two as well! Yes the Koalas are lovely too! I know there's a Roe Deer and another fox one coming out in February. I look forward to seeing yours whichever one you start xxx
