Christmas Presents

I was given some excellent Christmas presents:

And then [personal profile] debriswoman  gave me a stained glass cross stitch kit:



So I was very happy.  The stained glass kit is smaller and fits neatly in my sewing basket (which I sewed in 2017); the Klimt is much bigger and of course once I had unpacked the kit I couldn't get it all back in again.  Fortunately [personal profile] vix_spes  had sent me a bag, which, it turned out, was ideal for keeping all my cross stitch in:



The Klimt will take me years - here's the beginning stages - two photos each time, one to show the size, one close up:





The stained glass bookmark is progressing faster, although I sew it less often:
