I can hear you
Yes, Otto is listening to what is going on! His ear is finished. I started by padding horizontally and diagonally and did four layers of padded stitches. I then came back and laid six strands of floss over the gray area. I then did basketweave with six strands of black for the bottom section of his ear. Next I put in a few more rows of muntains under his chin and in the corner. I realized that I should go ahead and finish Otto and take him to his new home at Christmas, so I will work on him until he is finished, which should not take too long!

I know I would be totally thrilled to be given something so fantastic for Christmas.
He is beautiful .... or should that be handsome :)
I love that silky ear. Someone is going to have a very very good Christmas!
Now you need to see if the next one has been done for needlepoint - the Chicago Art Institute is showing this sheep with a necklace of bells - very festive.
What a wonderful gift! Otto is adorable.
