A cross stitch of convicted master felon and antagonist of Wallace and Gromit: Feathers McGraw. He is a plasticine penguin, wearing a red rubber glove as a cap to deceive people into thinking he is an innocent chicken when he is in fact a very evil and criminal penguin.

Woke up this morning with this guy on my mind and thought "I simply must cross stitch him" and so, hours later, here he is.

May you approach the new year with the same “Ride it like you stole it” attitude that this octopus is demonstrating riding the head of this absolutely befuddled moray eel.
