Thanks to one of my best friends, I became interested in hockey. For my birthday, she sent me a beautiful plushie of Wildwing, the mascot for what at the time was the Anaheim Mighty Ducks. For Christmas, I made her this hockey cross stitch piece with charms by Heinzeit, October 2005.
Again, this is the hockey pattern from Heinzeit, only this time in the Carolina Hurricane colors. This was given to a friend of mine in Raleigh, who sent me a Caniac Care Package. Finished December 2005.
Though I gnerally don't like this style of art in my stitching, the saying was just too cute to pass up. This was given as a thank you gift to our cat sitter, Bev, for taking care of our girls on an emergency basis when Ted's dad was ill. Pattern by Angel Stitchin', finished December 2006.
Yet again, the Heinzeit hockey pattern, only this time in the Tampa Bay Lightning colors. This one I kept for myself and swore I'd never do this pattern again. Ever. Completed October 2005.
