Honour Diversity

I'm using the time I'm spending in front of the TV watching the olympics to finally finish a long term x-stiching project. I'll have to search if I can find out when I started this, but it's been a few years now.

This is it with all the cross stitching done.
I still have to do the back stitching (not my favortie part) *sigh*
On the baby front, my friend's son has been born ten days ago and all is well with mother and child. He already got his new blanket and also a new jacket, knitted following the ever popular (it's been my third one) Baby Surprise Jacket pattern.

As I used a normal sock yarn it turned out rather on the smallish side. 

I hope it fits him for more than a week.
