December already!?

Well I can't believe it's December 1st! Crazy. Gotta get on some Christmas shopping and the rest of my holiday stitching.

But first I got my PIF from Meari in the mail. It's AMAZING!!! She is too generous!
Here is a picture of it (the hand-dyed fabric is my fave):


I have also been trying to get ducky done. I'm getting very close! I have the hole you can see, and I'm gonna round out the top a bit more there and it will be done. Maybe on my 12-hour stitching day (which is this Saturday!!!) I will be able to knock off the rest.
Here is a pic:


In other news... I am excited as the BF and I are buying our Christmas present to each other on Friday. It's a Ninetendo Wii! :) I am hoping it will mean we get off our butts to play video games because of the nature of the games. (but of course can't let it cut into stitching time!).

I also have a private exchange that I need to finish up and send out. Maybe a teaser pic of that later in the week. ;)

Thanks for all your overwhelming comments on Dragons last time around. They were all greatly appreciated. I have started the next row already but not quite enough to warrant a pic. But new pics for it soon!
Hope you are all not snowed in, we are getting some crazy snow where I am. But we have survived so far *knock on wood*.

You are soooooo close to getting Ducky done! Glad you liked the PIF. I'm gonna have to dye some more fabric -- I gave it all away, lol.

Ducky looks great! You sure have a lot of patience..both Ducky and your dragon piece look beautiful but seem like they would be very tedious to work on.

Ducky looks great, he's so cute. DD loves "duck ducks" as she calls them.

Congrats on a great PIF and a good progress on your stitching. I think I will join you this Saturday for a 12 hour stitching maraton. I bet I could finish my Frederick and some...

Oops, that submit button works way to fast (I'm blushing) and want to correct my typo... 12 hour stitching marathon, that's what I want to join you in!
