Ceitidh's Stitching (update after long absence)

Post by Ceitidh »

Haven't been doing a whole lot recently unfortunately but decided to do something Christmassy and have started on Candy Cane Santa by Dimensions Gold. This is how far I have got so far.

Image

Also working now and then on Pleasures of Winter (also by Dimensions) and this is where I have reached on that one.

Hi Katrina, what great starts on these 2 lovely ones. Love the Candy Cane Santa its so bright and colourful.
I've looked at the Pleasures of Winter a couple of times and then remembered how many other kits are still in the drawer so not bought it. Now I can enjoy watching you stitching instead.

Great start and looking forward to the next update :applesauce:

Will post update on Candy Cane Santa at weekend but thought I would post a wee picture of my Aurora Cabin after I got it framed for my birthday a week or so ago. I absolutely love it.
