Presents and the like

Now that Christmas is over, pretty much, I can show all the things I made as presents for people and family.

So here goes:

1. NON-FREEBIE - Round Robin:

Design - Round Robin Kit

Designer - Mouseloft via Hobbycraft.co.uk

Fabric - 14 count blue aida

Threads - what was in the kit

2.  FREEBIE/NON FREEBIE - Geisha Girls:

Design - Geisha Girls (from Joan Elliott's Oriental Collection)

Designer - Joan Elliott

(free with #177 of The World of Cross Stitching)

Fabric - 14 count ecru aida

Threads - as per the chart (DMC)

This chart came from a booklet that was free with a magazine. So really the chart isn't free as you have to buy the magazine to get it.

3. UNKNOWN - The Angels Have The Phone Box:

Design - The Angels Have The Phone Box

Designer - UNKNOWN

(possibly from Etsy though?)

Fabric - 18 count Ecru Aida

Threads - DMC

Oddly enough, the Geisha Girls above took me two days to stitch, even though there were a multitude of colour changes. The Dr Who cross stitch, however, took me four very long days to stitch, the TARDIS taking up three of those days all by itself. I'll be happy not to have to stitch any Weeping Angels or TARDIS' again any time soon!

4. FREEBIE - Cyberman Head:
