Mr. Winston came for a Visit

and now he is heading home.
Thank you so much to Carol of Stitching Dreams for loaning me her Mr. Winston chart. I fell in love with him when she stitched him. She offered to let me borrow her pattern & I said PLEASE!
I tried to stitch him up as quickly as I could.....I do not like holding onto other people's possessions for a long time.
I really enjoyed stitching this guy...he is just too cute. I used the called for flosses, except for his coat. That one is a floss from Victorian Motto Sampler.
I am attaching an extra picture........I took Mr. Winston outside to try to get a good picture of him & the fabric he is done on....and what did I see where I took the picture?!?!!?
Mr. Winston, close up

Mr. Winston loves my mums!

See anything in this picture?
Have a great week & happy stitching!!

Mr. Winston matches your mumms perfectly. That's a wonderful orange that you chose for his coat. So you have a snowman in an autumn-y outfit, lol.
