Foxes and Owls

I adore this fox! This was from the magazine (Enjoy Cross Stitch Xmas 14) I got from my swap-partner and I had been eyeing it for weeks without feeling like we had the money, and this fox in particular made me wish I could splurge to get it. Funny how life works out;)

Anyway, some years I made these as cards with writing on the back and some as just plain gifts....

Maybe I will do a little of both this year. This fox is saying it would be cool to give with a scarf for someone, so I guess I have to make yet another scarf, since I have an idea who to give this to.

I adapted this design a little with adding "Merry Christmas" in Norwegian. I know someone who loves owls as well as some who love foxes. But I think this will just be a card, but not sure....

There were more designs in the magazine that I want to make, more foxes and owls and a bunny to boot. We will see how much I have time for, I think I might not have time to cross stitch any cards this year... Sadly.

Fox Jul in September

So it is this time of the week again, and I am hopefully fully recovered now so there will be more updates.... 

So I will show you what I have been up to before I sill post this weeks tuesday tunes, the first Christmas card is done. A lovely little freebie from WOCS I think. Anyway I think it turned out great.

This is not completely done, there is a ton of beads left to finish it off with, but since this is both a Christmas gift and a WiSP I am feeling satisfied. I swapped the joy wording into a jul, which is christmas in Norwegian. I will be happy when this is finished, because it is starting to bug me a bit with all those beads, but no start until this is finished! 

And just because Norway is so happy and in a buzz with this song, I will leave with it, at least some good things happen in this country. Yes, I am depressed about the election yesterday.

But those of you who like Stonehenge, should really watch that video instead, I think it is better.

Summer Holidays

I made another free kit.

Another as in two others. From two different magazines. I LOVE the fox, unfortunately I have already given it away so I do not have a better picture of it.

But it looks roughly like this. ^^And no mistakes either (Yeah, I DID tell you I was not going to inform you when I made mistakes, but I never said I was not going to say anything when I performed perfectly either....)

I want a dog also... I think everyones childhood need at least one furry friend.

There was lots of mistakes in the chart, so I just sort of winged it:P

But there you go, I have been doing things even though I have gone away being touristy.
