#34 Computer Games are Evil

My Goodness, despite having the week off yesterday was the first day I picked up the needle and thread for the first time in over a week! It's all to blame on the new World of Warcraft expansion, but hooray I have levelled up to 90 now (the new max level) so (maybe) my stitching will get some more attention.

But!

I do have a finish to show you - the break seems to have turned me in to a speed demon with the needle.

The thread and pattern for this came to me as part of a giveaway from the lovely Minnie over at http://minnie-allxxs.blogspot.co.uk/ and I must admit I think he has turn out great, the pattern is by Twisted Threads and having looked online they seem to have more patterns I would like, I just need to find one which ships over to the UK.

So now he is done I need to work out what to do with him. Originally I was going to turn him in to a decoration for the tree but I'm not sure if he might be a bit on the large size. Any suggestions?

Sticking with the Christmas theme I simply must show what arrived in the mail for me last week, my very talented friend from school who is also in to craft but more the beading/clay side of things made some personalised decorations, when I saw them I asked if she could add cats to them (they are as much part of the family to me) and sure enough here is the result!

I love it - now I just have to wait for Christmas now :(

If you have made it this far well done - thank you again for the kind comments and the new followers, and as I have hit over the 50 mark now I may hold a small giveaway. I'll have a think about what to do then let you know at the weekend (as long as WoW doesn't distract me too much).
