Cross stich update time. Last time I showed you how far is gotten on my last pin cushion and said is have it finished to show you this time. Well, ta Da!
Hufflepuff done. That all four houses (incidentally I’ve got all four patterns in a pack on offer right now). And here they all are together and stacked up because why not? I had quite a lot of fun photographing them all together like this.
I had so much fun designing and stitching these. They go so quickly and are so easy to make 3d as well.
On to something less quick….
I’ve done more of my Christmas cross stitch. I managed to get the section I was stitching last time filled in, I finished off the massive Christmas tree on top and did a couple more of the little snowflakes with the spare thread I had.
Here’s last time and now:
I was really hoping I’d get on to the section underneath so I’m glad I made a start on it but it’s not much of a start! I’m quite busy next month so i probably wont get much done on this but I will be concentrating on getting as much of the bottom bit done as I can.
There’s still so much to do. Just to give you an idea of just how much – this is two full skeins of white floss used and it is maybe a tenth of the whole piece so I’ll definitely be doing this one for a while.
Here’s the links to everyone else taking part in the Sal:
Avis / Claire / Gun / Carole / Kate / Lucyanne / Sue / Constanze / Debbie / Christina / Kathy / Margaret / Cindy / Helen / Steph / Linda / Catherine / Wendy / Mary Margaret / Timothy / Heidi / Connie and Jackie
We post what progress we’ve made on our individual projects every three weeks and then jump around and see what everyone else is up to. Is a great way to stay motivated and see some lovely projects evolving.
oooh well done on getting the last pin cushion finished and all chart up in your shop!
And your Christmas piece is looking stunning on red!

I had no idea it would be such a large piece when I started designing it either but it just kept growing!
