But I thought this was the original Winnie the Pooh, not the Disney version Don't bite my head off, but I prefer that to Disney.

I think I made a mistake...yes, it is the original "Winnie the Pooh"....for some reason I think Disney is part of the "Winnie the Pooh" too.... my mother used to read all of the "Winnie the Pooh" books....including Piglets, Eeyore, Kanga, Roo, Owl, Tigger, etc..... I found the cross stitch designs from "Storybook Favorites in Cross-Stitch" by Gillian Souter. There are designs of Madeline, Peter Rabbit, Babar, Spot, Miffy, Paddington, Duck, Peter Pan, Angelina, and Winnie-the-Pooh.

I've just been catching up with all your lovely work since May. You've completed some lovely pieces, all beautifully stitiched.

I found this chart in one of my stash bins and decided to stitch it up. I don't know how long I had the chart. It is "T'is The Season To Be Snowy". I used 28 ct "Amber" fabrics with suggested WDW threads. I bought the birdhouse embellishment at my LNS which is a bit bigger than the chart suggested as it was the only one available at the time.

I am still searching for the "No Cut Hardanger" for Mabel.

what an adorable snowman design!! Great stitching job on it too!! Who's the designer--was trying to locate a chart on ebay by that name but no luck

It looks great! I love the birdhouse!

That is adorable!!!!!!

Like this one and the birdhouse is so cute

What a nice thing to find in your stash, and you stitched it up so quickly!

Don't worry about the chart, Sue, I've got enough WIPs to keep me going for a while anyway....

Thanks for the info Sue--will see if I can hunt one down--hope springs eternal

Just finished my SanMan Jar SAL last night. This took me awhile to finished because I was reading "Nineteen Minutes" by Jodi Picoult at the same time stitching. The book was a very emotional thriller and hard to put down...... had to rechecked my stitching through tears.

This is fantastic!! Nice stitching. Don't know how you've managed to read and stitch at the same time though

Great finish!!!!!

Love the snowman, such a cute design.

Congrats at finishing your SanMan SAL, it looks fantastic

Great work

Congrats, nice finish.

The snowman is stitched very well. Great work.

Cheers.

I might have,for a very slight second, thought it would be nice if it really were the season for snow
Both finishes look great!
