Well, I was totally in the dark as to what it could be. When others mentioned a nutcracker, I could visualize it as being one. This is going to be a fun one to watch You've made a great start on it too!

I'd guessed a cat , but this is wonderful!

Just saw this thread today, but would have had to disqualify myself. I just finished that same exact pattern yesterday! I'll post a photo in the Christmas Stitching thread.

Have fun with it, Rose!

Ha! My first guess was a cat, too - a cartoon cat. I'd never have guessed what it really is!

We should do these more often, had me scratching my head for a while lol looks like a fun stitch

Well, OK, the snowman would have been too easy, right?

So here is a quick little update.



Not had a lot of time this week.

Very nice!! I really like this design!!

It looks like you got a lot done, Rose! Very nice design!!

That;s coming on quick, and I like the shading on him, very 3D!

He's comng along great love the fun design

I had to share this with you because.....well to be honest as I was stitching it I thought. Eeeeewwwwwweeeeeee this is really creepy looking. So I wanted to share.

I have to agree, at this point your lovely nutcracker does look just a bit creepy! It is coming along nicely though, can't wait to see your next progress picture of it!!

he does look rather creepy doesnt he? great progress though!!

Zipping along. He looks great.

He does look pretty creepy right now, but I'm sure you'll have him looking better very soon!

I'm glad I started mine with his head!

Yes, it is a bit creepy... like if a Terminator and a nutcracker had a baby....
