Yay! I finished

The froggies are finished for now. 
I completed the cross stitch last night, staying up a little later than usual, determined to get them done.
Nelson, Kermit and Trump (I'll let you decide which is which. LOL) have had a wash this morning and are awaiting the final treatment.
I plan to finish them quilt style.
 So, for my next bigger stitch I'll be doing Mirabilias Spring Queen.
I have stitched her before, back in 2007. The same year I started blogging, but it must have been just before I started this journey, as I can find no record of her here on the blog.
However, I did take a photo of my finished queen.
She was then gifted to a friend, something I have always regretted doing. I'm not sure she is treated quite the way she should be.
The new model will receive the correct treatment. :-)
I've had everything kitted up for some time and spent a few minutes this morning making final preparations to begin sewing. She is a rather different shape to the froggies and I had to pull out shorter scroll bars.
It will be nice to work on something feminine again. :-)

Right, time for some domestics, then it's play time.
I may make bitty butterflies, or I may do some Christmas crafts.
What ever I decide, it will be relaxing and fun.
