I did start on the Christmas gift but decided to wait until I got more of the silk I'm using because, while it says on the chart, one strand over two, I like the coverage of two strands better... Its called Cottage Garden, designer Marc Davis for Needlemania:

And the Stash Club's first piece is here and ready to be kitted up... but I needed needlepoint canvas so that's on order too.
