Nicky must e very pleased. It is beautiful.
No wonder you got behind on your other stitchery. This is lovely. I'm considering substituting some stitchery for applique in the SAL project.
Raining here today...

It's gorgeous Donna! I bought this pattern on my one and only (so far) visit to Anni's last year and funnily enough got it out yesterday and looked at it and put it on the top of the pile "to do" next hopefully (in amongst other things)! It looks beautiful - Nicky is one lucky girl - and what a special phone call at Christmas! Have a great day - rain is good for stitching - remember!! xx
Just beautiful and what a lovely surprise to get a call
I love this! Really adorable. Thanks for including the name of the pattern ... tempting!

Lovely wall haning and lucky Nicky. Certainly deserved a phone call. Good to hear you have had rain - Brisbane has been waterlogged lately.

That wall hanging is so so beautiful Chooky...love the colours and the stitching. Will you get around to making one for yourself? Such a lot of work...but so worth it!
The wall hanging is beautiful, a wonderful gift. I love the personal touch of the chicken.
