what I'm working on

I've got so many WIPs lying around, I thought I should show you some of them.  I'm not going to show them all or we'd be here all night and you'd be asleep.  I'll just show you a couple.

Those of you that are part of the Handcrafted Holiday Sew & Stitch Along may well recognise these items.  First up is a tiny little cross stitch.  It came as a kit with CrossStitcher magazine a while ago.  The other night I had been working on my peyote star necklaces and wanted something else to do for an hour or so.  I picked up the kit and got stitching. 

This is how far I got as I ran out of thread!  That so annoys me when they don't provide enough thread.  I'm going to see if I can find something matching in my massive stash, if not, I'll have to abandon this and start again with stash thread.

See how tiny it is?  The other thing I've been working on is this little fella.

Isn't he cute!  I'm not going to explain what he is until it's finished, Sandra, don't spill the beans as I know you've worked it out!

I posted the photo below in the Flickr group for the Handmade Holidays Sew and Stitch Along and someone thought it was a hat.  Brilliant, wonder if I could make a bee hat like this?
