Congrats!

Thanks everyone. I got matching frames for all three of the celebrity stitches I did, so once I get them framed (probably not until closer to Christmas) I will be sure to post pics of them framed.

Now to figure out which gift to work on next.

Thanks to Megan sending me the Pirate Santa chart and also thanks to my being unable to sleep last night while I was at my mom's I got pretty far along in on the project.



I'm stitching it on 28 ct Monaco Tea colored cloth (which is not showing well in this picture). It's such a pleasure to work with.

It's always fun to watch this one come to life!! I hope you have as much fun stitching it as I did!!

Great start on a wonderful chart.

Yay! He still makes me smile.

I hope you enjoy stitching him as much as I did, and that you get some sleep!

Fabulous update Brandi and you have done well for your sleepless night. Hope you get a good nights sleep tonight.

Thanks ladies! I am really enjoying stitching this one up. Haven't got back to it yet as I slept for 18 hours. I guess I needed it, but it's still a bit nuts. Catching up on the forum and a few other things before I lose myself in the stitching.

[geekishly]

Got a lot done today. that I can finish him up tomorrow.

[karen4bells]

18 hours of sleep!!! Wow!! Guess you really needed it!!
Great update on pirate Santa, looks like you've gotten a lot done!!

[calico]

Such a lovely project and your stitching looks great!

[Raine]

Great progress! I would give a million bucks to sleep 18 hours! I'm a chronic insomniac.

[Rose]

He is great!!!!!!!!

[rcperryls]

I love this Santa and you are making great progress on it. Can't wait to see the finish!

Looks great Brandi

[geekishly]

Thanks everyone. For those of you jealous of my 18 hours sleep, don't be. I'd much rather sleep half of that.

[coolpenguin]

He's so fun and you're a fast stitcher! Actually, I think I'm just really really slow. I really like him!

[tiffstitch]

Excellent work and hope you're feeling more "normal" now!

[geekishly]

Thanks.

Small update: I'm about 1/3-1/2 done with the backstitching and then I'll be adding the charm to it. I got this cute one at Michael's that is a naughty/nice checklist, so I'll be attaching that instead of the treasure map.
