Woohoo, getting close to the end of 2025, and I’ve managed to finish two more projects over the last week or so.
The first one has a lot of sentimental memories attached to it, as I purchased it during a visit to Paris with my Mum. I rarely do surface embroidery, so I need more practice as this one really challenged me – I have more kits in my stash, though, so maybe I need to prioritise at least one of those for my 2026 new start stitching plans.

Purchased as a kit from Le Bonheur Des Dames in Paris during a visit
Started May 2020 – Finished 10 December 2025
The next one really makes me smile – the Supernatural TV show has been a firm favourite of mine ever since I watched the first episode years ago, and I regularly re-watch the seasons over and over again. I don’t often gravitate to ‘character’ designs, but I just couldn’t go past this one … Castiel especially makes me smile in this. I think this may end up as a panel insert on the front of a project bag, as I have some fabric scraps with a Supernatural theme on it … time will tell.
