Progress updated for "Kokopelli Christmas" I think this will take a couple of UFO week to finish since it is quite a big design.

This is coming along great!! Really unique and lovely design!!

Thanks everyone for your encouragement and much needed prodding. You are all wonderfully supportive, and some of your comments made me laugh. It took 3.5 hours to do the last 3 colors, but there were more comments each time I checked, so I had to keep going. It's now finished, and posted in my project thread.

Well worth the effort too!! It's marvelous!!!

Here's my progress this month....


So close to finishing the winter season one now...and I'm excited to start stitching the borders now

Never seen that design before, looks really pretty Mayne and I love how parts of the design just pop out like the butterflies and leaves

Lovely Mayne - every block is prettier than the last! I love the winter one.

Love the four seasons! I like the dimension of it

Great work everyone.

Congrats on finishing the mountain bluebird!!! It looks great!!!
And great job on the four seasons, Mayne. The color and detail in the design are amazing!

As for my own UFO.. I've been pretty busy with it. I've got a lot accomplished.. Pics tomorrow of course!

I so agree, this is a fabulous design and you've done a great job on it, can't wait to see it finished

Lovely work everyone, well done

Thats so pretty Mayne, well done

Well I am really pleased as I have finished and framed my AOY UFO, to be fair I only had the backstitching, some of the half crosses and a handful of full crosses but it is still a UFO finished and it's the first month I have been able to join in. I think UFO week is a great idea and many of us I finishing some of those long forgotten UFO's

Very cute!

A progress pic for this week. It was so long since I'd looked at the chart for this design, I got the title wrong in my signature it is not Rose Fairy but Spirit of the Rose and I was able to use Thread Heaven with the DMC light effects this time, whereas, I had never heard of Thread Heaven last time I stitched this.. definitely helped the thread go through the fabric more smoothly. I thoroughly enjoyed working on it this week, it made a change to do whole cross stitches instead of half ones, of which there are many ,on my Tiger.

Lovely projects Sue, Mayne and Minij
