It's my first visit to your blog. You have done some lovely stitching. I think I would need this one up all year not just Christmas! Stunning.
Wow, that is just gorgeous! First time commenter, but I just had to say something about this one. This is one of my all-time favorite patterns, and it turned out just great! I *love* the mats and how they're cut. Lovely!

Beautiful. I am so glad you finished this and that the framer did such a wonderful job!
He's fabulous - and already in my stash, thank you ;) But I have to finish "Gift of Peace" first - can't have two Santa's cooking at the same time, I'd be so dazzled I'd turn them both into UFO's before you knew what hit them...
Congratulations on a great finish!
He is gorgeous...love the frame and the mats...LOVELY!
I just found this blog and book marked it and was wondering the same thing! I HOPE it comes back...I look forward to seeing lots of posts of beautiful work.
