I know that we're well into April, but I'm still counting this as a March ornament finish. I don't normally stitch penguins for Christmas, (what the heck do penguins have to do with Christmas???) but I couldn't resist this widdle cutie-pie. If you've seen the original, then you'll know that I've changed the colours drastically. Not that there's anything wrong with the designer's colours, they're just not my style. I was a little disappointed that I didn't have a fancy schmancy button charm to use as Chilly's gift, but my husband pointed out that Chilly looks like he's nestled all snug in his bed. And a gift in bed would just be silly.
