The crossstitched and beaded Christmas decorations I am giving my authors this year are all finished, stuffed, and photographed. They get handed out tomorrow since one my authors is in the office for one day this week, and that's tomorrow. Only a couple of days early, but that's fine. These are the patterns from the kits that Mum got me to stitch her and I kept the pattern.
maudlinrose helped with the colour combinations.
For comparision, the one I did last year and the one I did for mum this year from the kitset, both in the pattern colours.

The shiniest




A French theme (or so I am given to understand)

This is the same linen as I did the Maidens of the Seasons on. It's far less turquoise when it's not against a green tree. The clear beads look much more silvery when not highlighted by a flash.

I was trying for subtle with this one, and I think I got it a bit too subtle - certainly I can't get it to photograph well.
So I have made seven of these, and can only count six lawyers. Either I was going to make one for the partner technically in charge of me, or I've forgotten someone. I really hope it's the former (which I am not now going to do, I think) because the latter is ridiculously embarassing. I'll take it in anyway and a spare card just in case. We have a team breakfast tomorrow morning at Trade Kitchen, so I should remember by then anyway.
