Another finish from my January starts. This is the second Christmas Pal by Dimensions.
I left him like this on 11th January:

His eyes, mouth and the snowflakes required quite a lot of French Knots so I did think of using beads. But having decided they didn't all have to be neat and precise I ploughed my way through the French Knots quite quickly. I also changed the message on the sign from 'Peace' to 'Love' but may well change it to something else as I'm not entirely happy.
Now to work on the third one from this series. Can I finish the remaining four before the end of the year I wonder?
Keep stitching,

Congrats on the cute finish Rachael. As speedy as you are at stitching, I'm sure you'll have the done before Christmas and hanging on your tree.
