Angel #1 Finished

Wow, the first of four angels is done and it only took 2200 minutes. Or 36.6666... hours. It did feel like infinity hours sometimes. No pix yet.

In between angels, I'm making ornaments for my family. So I started the first one today, for Jazzboy. It's "Frosty Friends" by Mosey 'N Me from this year's Just Cross Stitch Ornament issue, and I expect it will take somewhat fewer than 36 hours to finish. I was so excited to start it that I forgot to take a picture of the supplies, so you can see some of my stitching in the picture:

Right there in the center is an orange snowman's nose and a bit of blue scarf, which might be hard to see against the blue background.

Here's a funny thing: I was googling to find a picture of Frosty Friends for those of you who don't want to wait to see it--I didn't find one (not that I looked that hard) but I did find a previous post on this blog. Cool!
