Needles were flying and scissors were snipping! There was smoke coming out the ends of my fingers I tell you! It was crazy! In the end, this was the result -
LOL! Yes, Chilly by Stitchy Kitty is finally done :o) DH asked me last night why I was still working on him. He thought that maybe it was a hard design. Nope...just plain ol' procrastination.
Chilly's now holding snowflakes ;o)
I had a little fun and added a fringe to the bottom of his scarf. I thought that it needed something. I like it :o)
This was a fun SAL and if it weren't for Jenn, Chilly probably would have never gotten stitched this year. I'm really enjoying doing SALs with other stitchers because it motivates me. To see Jenn's finish, head on over to her Blog. Thanks for the fun Jenn :o)

Looks great! I really like the fringe you added!
ReplyDeleteWhat other projects are you thinking of starting? If I have it in my stash, maybe you and I could do a SAL? I find it is the best motivation!

Love the stitched & button snowflakes both! And what a great idea to add the fringe to the scarf. That's one of the great things about cross stitch... making it unique and our own!
ReplyDeleteHe is very cute. Such pretty colors.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Congrats on the finish!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on Chilly, I love the fringe you added. Congrats on another finish.
ReplyDeleteYea for a super-cute finish. Those are the dearest snowballs I've ever seen too.
ReplyDeleteOh my and I thought he looked cute before, Chilly is absolutely the cutest !! Are you doing one of his friends next ?
ReplyDeleteoh! Chilly is so adoorable!
ReplyDeleteThose snowballs and his scarf make him so darn cute. I would tell you to give him a hug,but I wouldn't want him to melt,lol
Congrats on your fifth finish. I love the fringe you added Chilly looks very cute.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see little chilly done. Like the fringe.

Being from Michigan I don't usually stitch snowmen....maybe because we have enough of our own. But this one is super cute! Love the colors!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute finish !!! ♥ I love it ! And yes, I fed the fishes ;-)
ReplyDeleteSoooo sweet, makes me wish the snow would come back again (but not yet!) Chilly looks great on your chosen fabric colour and the extra touches are great xxx
ReplyDeleteJust love this design. So incredible cute! Love the little buttons you added too.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so sweet! A perfect finish, Cathey. I really like the trim on Chilly's scarf!
ReplyDeleteGreat finish! Love the fringe. You'll be very happy to have him as a decoration come Christmastime!
ReplyDelete*cof! cof!* I'm coughing with all that smoke! LOL :D
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!! And so cuteeeeee =) I love it!
That fringe is adorable, I remember seeing it on your Stoney Creek's snowmen :) Perfect detail!
That fringe is just perfect but I kinda miss the snowboobs. :o) Well done!
ReplyDeleteHope Chilly's completion means spring can now arrive! Daylight savings this weekend...WooHoo!
ReplyDeleteI love love your finishing, Cathey. Your "Chilly" is absolutely beautiful. The fringe is just perfect. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteGreat finish Cathey, do love the fringe is it stitched or attached? Did that make sense? Also the buttons as snowballs look so real.
ReplyDeleteLiBBiE in oz
Well done on the finish
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - I absolutely adore Chilly - Awesome finish !!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDarling finish, Cathey! He is just the cutest thing. Love your fringe additions - very sweet!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun finish! I wish I had that hat and scarf!
ReplyDeleteOh he is just adorable! Love the fringe and cute snowballs..lol!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I love the fringe!
ReplyDeleteJenn
You are so right, SALs can be very motivating. And what a funny idea to add that fringe, lol.
ReplyDeleteAdorable finish! I have this printed out (somewhere)...I love the way yours turned out!
ReplyDeleteHe looks so cute! Those bright pink cheeks!
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I just realized that his name mixes upper and lower case letters and that bothers me...
Congrats Cathey! Love his snowflakes :)
ReplyDeleteHi Cathey,
ReplyDeleteOh, where to begin?? So many
wonderful things on your blog
to talk about and admire.
I think I'll start off by
gushing about Chilly. He is
so amazing! I love the colors
in his scarf, I love his pink
cheeks, I love the fringe that
you added to the bottom of his
scarf. In short, I'm in LOVE!
I have this chart in my stash.
Ohhhhh boy! Will you be
stitching the other two snow
guys to keep Chilly company??
Snowboobs. Snort, giggle,
roll eyes, etc.
The pin cushion that Patty
stitched for you is beautiful.
Love that red!! Which looks
fabulous on the fabric that
she used. Where on earth do
you buy walnut shells anyway?
If I break down and buy all
the Christmas Rules charts
and stuff I'll be blaming
you Cathey. Yours is looking
so incredibly beautiful with
every block that you stitch.
Why do you have to be such a
inspiring stitcher??
I'm so glad that you got such
amazing, fun stash with the
Secret Santa coupon. I can
only say you're welcome and
enjoy.
I see that the irresistible
and adored Cadbury Easter
Creme eggs are once again
tempting and tantalizing
their way into your heart.
Snack cakes hmmmmm. What
next? I love the little bunny.
It's been snowing here again.
Then it rained. Now we're
ankle deep in slush and mud
while a thick fog coats
everything. I am so sick of
grey, dreary, wet Winter.
Phil saw a Robin today. Hope
he brought Spring with him.
CHeers!
Great finish ;)
ReplyDeleteJust love 'Chilly' I think you personalisation idea will get copied loads of time. Agree It certainly adds something.
ReplyDeleteBy the way I've got the link to work on my blog re the 'Santa' by TLC Designs so pop back if you want to see the designs. Cheers

That is soooo cute! Great finish. I love the fringe--perfect addition!
ReplyDeleteI love this little guy. He is too too cute.
ReplyDeleteOMG, how did I miss this one :) I love your Chilly finish.
ReplyDeleteDid you see my finish of the 3 of them together? I couldn't decide which one to stitch so I did all 3 but they did feel never ending ;)
He is gorgeous! Looks great.
