As planned, I took the Emperor along to my stitching day yesterday. I was more than happy with how much I achieved. Then after grocery shopping, lunch and a few more chores I sat down and stitched some more. He is complete.
And just in case you didn't guess what the gift might be.
The little Emperor made an appearance at last.
I am delighted with this piece and very happy that it stitched up so quickly.
The Emperor's Gift was a design in Just Cross Stitch Ornaments magazine 2012.
I stitched it onto a piece of DMC Morning Dew 14 count Aida.
So it has ended up quite large as Christmas Tree ornaments go. But I can live with that.
Now to get him made into a fully Finished Object.

What's next? You ask...
I already pulled out a small piece for my 15 minutes in the mornings and plan to find something else, something a little more time consuming for club days and evenings. Maybe even two projects?
Maybe?
For today, I need to do something quilty.
Down in the Garden needs borders.
The memory quilt needs a final trim and bind
There are lots of things I could be doing, but first I need a hair cut.

He is just adorable Lou. My stepson had a partner for 3 years & her favorite thing EVER was penguins. I used to always be on the lookout for anything penguin related & they were hard to find.
Love your Christmas penguins Lou. Very clever, Hope you got through your to do list.
Lovely work on your penguin. Great to see it growing.
So cute. x
How cute is the Christmas Emporer....

penguins have a special place in my heart - especially after they were tariffed by the orange piece of poop - and this one, being an emperor with no clothes, is truly sweet.
How did I miss this post? Love the penguins!
A very fine Emporer.
