I agree with the others. That gingerbread house is a fantastic pattern.. and really does look like you could pick a gum drop off the trees. I'll be pulling up the magic bench for this one

The gingerbread house is scrumptious, and the photo of all your kitted up stash had me drooling! Good to see your progress on the others, too -- and :lol: at naughty Puss-in-Soots

I agree. I adore my cats (I have 3). My husband calls the youngest two (the naughty ones) "feral beasts" and wonders often and aloud when we can get rid of them. I take the view that as I am the one who is at home with them, feeds them & does the dreaded litter tray, then they stay as long as I say so!! That said, it IS rather irritating when Fluffy decides to explore the chimney flue, still better that than a live mouse ... or pigeon ....

The Tiger is sooo close to being done!!! :dance:
I like the gingerbread house design. Great choice of fabric to go with it. I like it better than the fabric they used in the picture

Now I am sure that Fluffy is not the one who goes up the chimney flue, he looks far too innocent for that - on second thoughts though maybe he is. The more innocent they look the more likely they are to have done it. He's is gorgeous though.

Just love your Tiger, he is beautiful. What a great idea to get on with your Christmas stitching and you have made an excellent start with them. The Gingerbread house and the 12 Days one are going to be so gorgeous up on your walls.
