Another Santa’s Village update and a Prairie Schooler work in progress

Hi everyone, here is another update of my latest village finish, I am just waiting for the delivery of the next pattern but I have finally caught up, at last!
I have also been stitching a Prairie Schooler pattern, I started this a while ago, it is Rain, Rain, Go Away, one of my favourite designs, it is so appropriate for me as I hate going out in the rain!  

I made a mistake on the Santa’s Village house, if you look to the bottom of the stable doors there are two lines of red cross stitching but there should only be one, it does not make much difference to the design so I left it in as I did not like the idea of starting all over again just for the sake of one tiny mistake.   
More stitching news.

I have just joined Squidoo and posted my first cross stitching lens all about cross stitch ideas, you can see it here if you  wish. 
For those of you that have never heard of Squidoo ( I hadn’t until recently ) it is a website where you can write about anything you like, of course my subject is cross stitch but I will be writing about other things too.
   
Thankyou for all of your comments and visits, until next time – Happy Stitching! 
Best Wishes and Happy Stitching.
Lynn B

    Lovely stitching !! Looks very sweet:)
    I too made a tiny mistake ( in fact, I always make 😉 ) in my recent finish but based on the type of design, I just let it go.

    Hi There, I am a new visitor to your blog, and what a gorgeous blog it is!
    I do love the look of the Santa Village & would love to stitch it, but I think The Husband might not like the wintery theme of it, in our summer Christmas in Australia!
    I look forward to visiting here again.

    Great projects!! I never would have known about the "mistake" if you hadn't pointed it out! I prefer to call things like that "personalizations" ~ lol!

    congrats on getting caught up with Santa's Village! The PS is looking good too!

    Love your progress. My next instalement came a couple of days ago so I'm back to my village.
    The PS piece is lovely too. Not very appropriate just at the moment!
    Have a great weekend.

    Your Santa's village is looking stunning – I just love the vibrant colours and I think the extra line of stitching looks just fine.
    Love your new PS start as well.

    Really lovely progress Lynn.I would never have noticed your mistake if you hadn't pointed it out. It definitely wasn't worth frogging or starting over.
    I like your PS start too!
