I'm back with finish number 6 from my January new starts!
Bert Badger was enjoyable and easy to stitch up, although I did fudge the backstitching again. Justine described the backstitching as "sketchy" which suits the design perfectly and means a bit of poetic licence could be used.
This is how Bert looked last time you saw him:
And here he is all completed and ready to join Sally in my Box of Shame until all 6 Woodland Folk have been completed:
DMC Woodland Folk
Stitched on 16ct Kelp over-dyed aida by Fabric Flair 2 over 1
Stitch count 57 wide by 57 high
Started - 6th January 2016
Finished - 23rd February 2016
Total stitching time - 15 hours
(estimated 16 hours)
So that's another WIP checked off my list.
As for what's next..... probably not another finish, but a couple of the larger pieces on which I wish to make some progress. But, you never know!!
Hope everybody's keeping those needles busy!

Soooo cute! Congrats on another wonderful finish!! I'm not coughing as bad today and don't feel as dizzy so hopefully I'll be able to pick up my needle again.

So cute! I love his squidgy tummy. Looking forward to stitching these myself!
Amazing how much work goes into what looks like a relatively small design. That's why I don't count my stitching hours!
He's a chubby little badger! He's very cute though and will look great with the others. Hopefully it will only be a short stay in the box of shame!
Another great finish, you are just checking them off your list right and left! Good for you :) Looking forward to seeing your next finish.
He's adorable.
Cute finish I love his big feet!
Another spectacular finish. Love his little round tummy!
Another sweet little Woodland guy finished. I'm looking forward to seeing a picture showing them all side by side.
