Happy Christmouse

 with the back stitch done 

all becomes clear .

I did make a small ohps  but I don't think it too obvious or distracting from the feel of the pattern.

This is a cover kit from WOX.

BFF RAL once more

 so for me this time that equalled felting.

Stabby stabby 

Through a template this time, something I saw on a Facebook video.

I think it is working, but I don't expect to be sharing the result for awhile.

I rather enjoyed seeing the progress Roni was making on her RAL this evening. 

Pop on over to my BFF's  blog to see her pretty pretty progress once she posts it that is.

Snowman has a home

 well a frame. It has been waiting a long time to get a frame.  I finished this 13 years ago and like my dragon from my friend it has waited such a long time (and yes it is still the same carpet on the stair, been the best carpet ever)

So at last E.T the Snowman will go on display for Christmas this year, having benefited from the little framing splurge my BFF instigated.

A Felt Father Christmas

I saw a little kit in the charity shop for 50p. Ah I am a sucker for 50p items. 

I started putting it together but I had issues with the glue, it would not stick so well and then a bit went an odd shade.

So I put it away, waiting on me remembering to get glue that was strong enough.

And then there was glue, and a few little pearls added from my stash to cover up the yellowed spots and

ta da !

He does have a slightly gloomy look about him.  Perhaps that's just me .

Nice for 50p, well plus glue, which was also bought for sticking other things.

This is how the kit looked when I bought it.,

Star letter and prize.

 I have had letters to the WOX published in the past, A wedding sampler ,A dog a lady in dress and cone figures 

After completing the snow man and the reindeer, I had another cone kit arrive with the WOX .

I added pearl beads and a bow to this one.

took a picture of the whole group together

And sent it off to the WOX and to my surprised delight it was published as Star Letter. I am currently subscribing so no rush to the shops or e-bay to get a copy this time.

I have waited to post about this for the prize to arrive.

I will admit that the delight over the Star Letter has been somewhat tempered by my father being unwell at the moment, receiving the three kits perked me up just a little. I have other project that I am working on to keep my sanity, so nice as these kits are I don't expect to be starting them immediately. 

Perhaps for next year.
