Finished Christmas Banner!

Last night, I finished the Christmas banner.  I only had the backstitching to do.  I will need to sew this up, but since I get lazy about doing that... Anyway, I have until next Christmas to do it!  Here it is:

I find the penguins' eyes look weird...

New Start Xmas Banner & Scarlet Lips WIP Continued

Hi!

I have been working on a couple of projects lately.  First, I have been continuing on my "Scarlet Lips" QS from HAED.  I love working on this one!  I wasn't able to finish a page, though.  But I still got to do quite a bit:

 

Compared to the last wip:

And I started a new cross stitch 2 weeks ago.  It's a Christmas banner from Dimensions. It's really cute!  It will be ready for next Xmas:

I stitched the whole thing without the backstitching.  I made an error on the top where it says :Welcome Friends.  I stitched 3 extra rows (miscounted).  I like it though.  I also eliminated the orange squares; made them red instead:

Next I will be doing the backstitching!



Have a great week!
Hugs,

Christmas Stockings

I wanted to make Christmas stockings for my husband Fred, my son Alex and for myself.  I started all three a couple years ago, and only finished my husband's.  Here are the WIP of my son's Polar Bears stocking, which actually is printed needlepoint and not cross stitch.  But still adorable!:

 Next is my counted cross stitch stocking with kittens:

Here is the finished stocking I had made for my husband:

 

 This was a printed cross stitch and had some areas that were embroidered.  It came out very pretty.  Here is a close up:
