Errrrrr no nmm I think that would mean no sleep at all for me!! Good luck finishing the leopard in that timeframe, No pressure lol!
Still no word from FoS and I'm wondering if she's ok. In the meantime, this is the card I sent her:
Three cards sold at the craft fayre on Saturday, although mum did well again with her tea cosies and blankets. Think I need to change tack as the cross stitching pieces take a long time and aren't very popular it would seem. Might make crocheted cushions instead but next fayre not until March so have a little thinking time.
Hope all are well

Coxy the card looks lovely. Hopefully fos is alright and will post soon to say she's ok and the card arrived safely.
Sorry the cross stitch isn't selling well, hopefully you'll think for something for the next one.SPC~12 ot 124

If you had said Dec 2016 I might have considered the challenge but I will pass on Dec 2015 challenge thank you.
Still loving your leopard and good luck with finishing by 31.12.15
He is so cute Coxy :T Hope fos is ok. Good luck with future Craft Fayres.

I haven't been doing my cross-stitch for a while, though I did contemplate a complete all current craftings before the end of the year, but with the Winnie The Pooh cross-stitch only 1/3 complete, that was not going to happen!
My mum's quilt for wall hanging was finished and it's all wrapped ready for Christmas. Just hope she likes it!Mum's Heirloom Quilt 2011-2014 (32) by Kerry, on Flickr
Currently trying to finish my second knitted sock after doing my first ever sock the other week. I know it's not cross-stitch, but I'm going to be getting back to that as soon as I finish the socks!2015-12-07 21.21.44 by Kerry, on Flickr

I guess i'm alone on this challenge then, bah humbug :rotfl: Love the card, quilt and the sock, they're really great. I hope FOS is ok.
I was thinking perhaps we should start a new thread for 2016 and get back to the UFO challenges etc, we seemed to have lost our way a little this year, not that its a bad thing, what do you guys think?Cross Stitch Cafe Member No1WIP: Cross Stitch: - Crochet:0 -
I think that sounds like a good idea nmm
. I suppose heading my list will be my Christmas (now 2016) cushion :rotfl:. Have tried to stitch a little cover kit christmas card at Mum's and am so not enjoying it so I decided to put it to one side. I don't have a use for it this year to I suppose that's another ufo for the list
