Here is my WIP:


And my progress:


It's for one of my besties who will be in town the week of Christmas. I really want it done before then but I have other craft gifts to do as well. Praying I have time for all of these projects AND to help my 7 yr old daughter make some gifts as well. Must keep my neurotic craft gifting handed down for generations.

Great work.... and bravo for passing down your crafting gift!

Such a cute design and you've made a great beginning!

Such a lovely design, and you for passing on your craft!

I love the design!! I wish my 10 year old would pick up stitching (or any craft) but she doesnt want to have anything to do with it!
Keep it up!!

That is an adorable pattern and very nice for a gift to a good friend.

Thank y'all so much! It's so nice to get encouragement from ppl who enjoy stitching. PPl who don't stitch don't really *get* it. LOL

Next week I'm getting back on this CS and starting on our other projects. Which include plastic canvas and yarn dolls. She loves making yarn dolls with me. Touches on her clothing design passion..

Very cute design. Well done for encouraging your daughter to get involved, my 4 year old likes to "help" me stitch! Causes havoc with the tension!

Great start and very pretty design .

Great project & you've made a great start

You have made a great start

A great project and a good start. I hope you have it done in time

I LIKE that! And yeah - get the kids stitching! I couldn't get my daughters interested... One prefers paint, the other collage. They both say their preferred craft is easier that xstitch!

This is really cute, great to hear your daughter likes crafts as well
