One contains a woman in a blue dress and cap with two picture frames and a manor house. One contains a woman in a teal dress sitting with Frankenstien’s monster.

For Rudolph, I used red felt and beads. Otherwise he is as designed.
I didn’t finish the sign post but I added a lot of snow on top. I also stuffed the top part but used plastic canvas for the inside of the pole. I used 3mm sequins on the bird.
Frosty - for the snow, I went with Clear AB sequins. Then, I added a 3mm Clear AB on top of a 5mm. Then I added a 3mm Clear AB onto all of the sequins on his clothing, so that they would have a snowy effect. I did not use them on the hat, because it hasn’t been outside all this time.
On Santa, I used White Opal sequins in 3, 4 and 5mm for his trim. I then decided, since there is so much white, that I wanted to distinguish between them, so I used pearls for his beard. I also added gold sequins to the belt buckle and black ones to his belt and boots.
a set of four Christmas ornaments. On the left is a Santa, dressed traditionally in the red suit with green gloves. Next to him is a snowman in a black hat with red earmuffs, a blue scarf with green fringe and green mittens holding a sign that says “Let It Snow.” Next to him but up a little is a red and white striped pole with Holly and a small bluebird. On the right is Rudolph.

Oooooh…what pattern is this?
This is definitely a step up. I enjoyed the 2011 film, but it was more because of them than the quality. This isn’t perfect but it’s a strong start
I got blocked. And then unblocked. And then gained like a ridiculous amount of new followers. So I consider that a win for more people not liking gen AI
The premiere of the new Muppet Show was well worth it. I’m not a big Seth Rogen fan, but he largely got the assignment. It’s not perfect, and I’d have preferred “Pigs In Space” or “Veterinarian’s Hospital” over “Pigs With Wigs” but for the first time in a while, it’s felt more like Jim than Disney.
Hands Across the Sea. She got a lot of heat for it and I did an IG live about how bad Gen AI is and she did remove the post, but she made another one later so no lesson learned.
I love this. Especially after a recent designer’s use of it in an advertisement

What so sad? I stopped working on it on the next to last release, I have less than 2000 stitches on it and I haven’t picked it up in 4 years lol
Today I’m going to be working on Chinese Zodiac by Frosted Pumpkin, which hasn’t been touched in so long I don’t have a picture of it lol
I’m trying to remember to be better about it lol
So this wasn’t a kit, I actually bought the pattern, fabric and floss separately. While the kits are great if you are curious and want to learn how to stitch, the themes and variety of kits are pretty small.
Image Description: On a blue mottled fabric with yellow and green highlights a mansion is being stitched. The roof is black, with shade of blue wood panels on the dormers. Ghosts, bats and clouds surround it. Of the eventual nine rooms, three have been stitched in full. On the top floor, in the center is the Phantom of the Opera with red stage curtains, a pipe organ and a chandelier. On the right is the Creature from the Black Lagoon with vines and water. On the middle floor in the center is a Mummy with a sarcophagus, urn, cat and torch with heiroglyphics.
I forget to post here. A lot.
