I had a special cake made that was entirely dairy free so everyone could enjoy it, and it was fantastic! It was very specially decorated too, so once I get the photos off the camera I'll post one of his cake. I forgot to take one with my phone. DH really loved it, and everyone had a good time at the party, so I'm glad we pulled it off.
On to stitching!
Not too much done this week with all the excitement, but owl #10 is almost done! I only have a few days to finish it off and the other 2, but I think I can manage it since I have the weekend as well.
Here's Owl #10 outlined in DMC 823, 4 over 1 and filled in with Jodyri Flying Monkeys (love the name!) 3 over 1:
Clearly this one is unhappy I have him in the Qsnaps crooked and is eyeballing the little bit of Qsnap showing in this photo. :)
I hope you've all had good weeks and wish me luck finishing off Owls 10-12 before Sunday!
Happy Stitching,

That's a great idea for organising a surprise party - choose a different month entirely! Glad it all went well and everyone enjoyed the cake.
ReplyDeleteYour owl is very funny too.
Another adorable owl Tiffany. I love the colors your using. No luck needed, you'll get it done.

You'll get them done, I know you will. Owl #10 is definitely keeping his eye on something. LOVE the floss name!
ReplyDeleteWell done surprising DH.
Your stitched owls always look cute:) This project is one of my favourites among yours. That's a good idea to have a surprise party. Looking forward to see the special cake.
ReplyDeleteCome on...you can do it! There's a freebie waiting for you if you finish them all, right?
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see all the owls together. This one is a cutie, and yes it's a great name for floss!
