If you came here from Roni's blog then this first image will surprise ewe.
yes it is a sheep in a Christmas hat! This is the RAL part, as I had already started the backstitching on the SAL when last we were working on it. So I finished off the cross stitch and backstitch on this first.
Then moved onto the Wreath Mouse. I found one ninja as I was backstitching the mouse, some ??? placed ones whilst doing the holly leaves and decided that the backstitching in the random greenery was excess to my requirements.
Not that sure the yellow bits look like the bells I supposed them to be, even with the bit of gold blending filament, perhaps they are baubles?
I did not feel bad stopping backstitching at this point and not finishing the stitching as per the pattern as after some discussion my BFF also decided to limit the amount she was adding.
Here is mine with an idea of how it will look in it's felt frame from the kit, but as Roni noted we have an over abundance of time to sort that, it will most likely be gazumped by other more time sensitive projects ( then next thing you know we will be complaining how Christmas crept up on us and be in a rush)
CLICK HERE to pop over to my BFF's blog (well if you did not start from there) and see how her variation looks.
And yes that is the dragons in the background, I was showing my BFF my progress, I will update on that one separately later.
We think we have a plan for BFF SAL 22, but plans can change.
