Cross Stitching along to Christmas

Most of the time that I’ve spent stitching since the last update has been on a secret project that I can’t share yet. But I did managed to completely finish the stitching on it which meant I had time to get a bit done on my main project this week in time to show you some progress.

So here it is last time next to this time:

And a closer up shot of the progress that isn’t swamped by all the yet to be used fabric:

It’s almost asking for snow! The swirly bits will eventually be stitched in gold but the letters will be left so that the red fabric shows through.

I also finished designing my Hufflepuff pin cushion, so I might have started stitching on that one for the next update as well as, hopefully, a lot more progress on this one. It’s the last pin cushion! This will mean all four houses have been done.

I don’t really need four pin cushions beside my sewing machine though…..

Here are the links to everyone taking part in the stitchalong.
