Congratulations on the new job!
I have all my blocks pretty much completed, except...
I still need to learn to embroider a simple straight line stitch for the cow and donkey blocks. After I complete the tails (and eyes and nostrils for the cows), I'll be ready to square them up and ship them out! I haven't decided if I'll just go with black for the tails or if I'll look for some coordinating thread instead. I guess if I buy multiple colors I can always make some quick friendship bracelets with the rest (my niece might like some).
