So, it's done; it's a wrap, and I only had to cut his head off once, instead of my usual 4 times or so. It even looks like him! The background is all printed, fussy cut fabric, so that was easy; John is painted and invisibly machine and hand appliqued. The rocks are Puff Paint, heated up and painted. The border is a batik, which shouldn't have gone with it, but somehow does.
So, now that that's done, I have absolutely no excuse for not Christmas shopping, except for the rather lamentable fact that I have NO IDEA what I'm shopping for. We (my DH and I) even went to the Mall today (and found parking, which was remarkable in and of itself), and only managed to spend the gift cards my husband had from his boss; by then, we were exhausted, went home, got a glass of wine and contemplated the lovely, 60 degree weather in California, while my relatives are slogging it out at minus 2 in Minnesota. I think I'll go back and clean up the Studio, so if and when the spirit moves me, I'll be able to find my scissors again.
