She is really enjoying doing tapestries still and that is what the giraffe is, made especially for Aunty P, who is mad about giraffes. Uncle S's favourite animal is one that she couldn't find a tapestry for, an otter, but she did find a little counted cross-stitch key-ring kit. M's really not keen on counted cross-stitch (as opposed to printed canvases, which is what the tapestries she does are) and asked me to help her with it. I did so, but it became clear that I had made a mistake at some point, but by that time it was advanced enough for her to wing it and fortunately the mistake wasn't bad enough for the picture to be spoiled.
Both girls have now started on their Christmas thank yous and, as you might expect, K has been quilling hers.
