Christmas Mice

Our Christmas tree has been down for what seems like ages, and I’ve even manged to put away all the Christmas things that inevitable get forgotten. (Okay, except for that one reindeer ornament that is still sitting on a bookshelf.) But, I’m still thinking about Christmas. Take a look at these sweet little mice.

The patterns are Gingerbread Mouse and Gingerbread Jingle Mouse from Just Nan. They are stitched on 32 count Raw Belfast, using the floss called for. I did change out the Kreinik since the pattern called for the newer prismatic stuff and I didn’t have any.

For those curious, here is what they look like before they are put together.

I thought about saving these for my March Smalls SAL finishes, but since I finished the stitching in January and finally sewed them up this week, I really didn’t want to save them any more. And, besides, I’m kind of going to a Teresa Wentzler theme for my smalls this year. 😉

Speaking of the Smalls SAL, if you stitched something for February, be sure to head over to this post and add your link. I’ll be closing the link list sometime around this Wednesday.
