I also stitched on it every day for the 12 Days of Christmas as part of a Challenge on the Stitch Maynia FB page. Since then I have been focused on finishing the Partridge for this month. I did have a little break to fit in my Hallowe'en stitching though.
Here is the Partridge in his Pear Tree, minus his beads which will be added at the end:
And here is the whole piece so far:
The plan is to stitch the borders each evening when my son is in the bath and return to Block 2 in February. You can see where I stitched each block for a decreasing number of days for the challenge! Block 12 only got stitched on the final 12th Day whereas Block 2 got stitched on every day from the 2nd onwards.

That's a terrific looking partridge. You've given us a 'tease' for the rest of the days, so it will be fun to see them finished.
This is so gorgeous, Jo, I love the partridge.
Beautiful partridge!
It is so pretty!! I love the swirly words. And I bet that was a fun challenge :)
Fab finish on Day 1. Looking forward to seeing you stitch on this design over the coming year :o)
Good plan, Jo, and it works. Great first Day finish.
That's really pretty!!
