Yes I Have Been Stitching

Here is a picture of the ornament that I stitched for my partner in the Ornament exchange over at
123 Message Board
I hope she likes it as I have never finished one off this way.....

It is from a JCS ornament issue, I will post all the details tomorrow as I left my notebook at home with all the details.

And here is a picture of Picasso's Rooster, which was a PIF from a member of the 123 message board. This isn't completed but I only have about 3 hours of stitching left.  This is going to be my mums Christmas present - she collects chickens and roosters and has always asked me to do some "fancy work" for her LOL

 

Whoo Hoo, I have tomorrow off work as it is Melbourne Cup day, even though it isn't a public holiday they should make it one as I don't know anyone who works on this day...well slight exaggeration I do know people that work on Melbourne Cup day.  We are going to be hanging out with friends, having a few drinks, eating some fabulous food and may be having a bet two.  Will fill you in on how I go in the next day or so and will post a copy of the recipe and picture of the finger food that I take with me, brand new recipe but easy peasy!!
