Nice work this is really coming together for you.

Beautiful work!!

Fluff - sweet christmas tree you made for your boy.

Oiralinde - wonderful progress, looking forward to it all coming together!! You've got some lovely ideas there. Glad most of the family is feeling better!

I finished stitching these last night





Now on to sewing it together today. I'll post when finished too. I hope it looks good when it is all done!

Looks great!!!

They look very cool!
Faith

Those look very nice!!!!!

Looking forward to seeing it finished, almost there looking good so far!!!

Finished! Whew... and just in time. I was worried it wouldn't get finished in time because my DD was screaming most of the day (she is 3 months old, so I forgive her). Luckily she fell asleep and has been out solid tonight. I hope that doesn't mean she wakes up at 4am ready for the day!

Here is the finished piece:



I bought a cute gingerbread man that fits perfectly in the pockets. He can be the counter.



Originally I wanted to cross-stitch his name to go on it, but life got in the way and I had to take that part of the design out. I am happy with how it came out. I still need to press it so that the wrinkles are gone. The picture looks like the bottom strip is crooked. It is straight, I just need to iron it.

Merry Christmas everyone!

What a fantastic project Congratulations on your finish You have done really well with this

She didn't wake at 4; she woke at 6. That's doable.

What a beautiful treasure to have every Christmas! Wonderful work and I love the little gingerbread man!

I have just caught up with this, and it's fantastic. You have really shown your "mummy metal" soldiering through illness(es) -- mum's always get sick last, and often worst -- and a grumpy 3-mo-old is no joke, either. Congratulations!

You have done a beautiful job finishing this up and just in time for Christmas.

You've done a beautiful job. I'm sure it will be a special treasure for years to come.

Congratulations!! It's super!! .... and your timming for finishing it couldn't have been better!!

Congratulations on finishing in time. It looks fantastic.
