Here is my Christmas conversion so far:
I started it about 5pm this evening and have stopped for the night. I am hoping to finish it tomorrow
Unsure if I will do the wings or not. For those of you wondering what the original pattern looked like it is this one:

Our decor for Christmas is red and gold so she is going to be a perfect match. I am now thinking of stitching up the fairies for P, S and W in Christmas colors for ornaments
but I have to finish a present for my friend first.
