I finally feel as if I am really making some progress on Jolly Old Fellow. I am always slow to 'get into' a project (that's the main reason I do just one at a time), but bonding with Jolly Old Fellow has taken a record time for me, as usually after working on a project for this long I would have finished it! I'm now about half-way through page 4, and now that I've started using some greens it really does feel like a Christmas project. I am going to try and finish page 4 before April 20, to give me a chance of getting page 5 almost done by the end of this month. Then there's not much to do on page 6, so I hope to have the first 'layer' done and dusted by mid May. That's the plan, anyway.
I feel some beading coming on soon, so I'll take a little break after finishing pages 1-6, and make some beaded angels and bookmarks, and also maybe a few cross-stitched ornaments. I'll wait and see what flows.

You really are coming along! I am amazed how much you have stitched just beginning in January! Can't wait to see more.
Your progress is amazing, just ask any HAED stitcher! It is nice when a new color appears, isn't it? And in this case the red and now green, I think would also make me start feeling Christmas coming on. Taking a break is good. Hope to see some new ornaments soon.
I really love this pattern !!! It will be so fun to see it growing ...
Wauw, maybe you will have it done by christmass, just in time to hang it up ;-)
