more ornamentation....


.....just completed, all I need to do is make a corded hanger for these 2, they are to be gifted this weekend:


(so you can see the size)































On the above I used the letters from the sampler in the BBD joyuex noel  pattern book.

I wanted to share this next ornament from last year, because it is one of my favorite, I loved stitching the alphabet with the thread ....I think the thread was called fiesta...it seemed so non christmas in color and the picture does not do it justice , but trust me it is perfect with the snowman and the linen, from Homespun Elegance....Snowman Sampler:


















Here is what is currently in the hoop: titled feather your nest from

My first time to stitch 28 ct 1/2 stitch over 1 thread, let me say I am a fan,
the colors in this are perfect too.....(dmc which makes me happy, because it is at hand) and the chart and notations are so helpful for those with eyes that like bright daylight (if you know what I mean)   ;0)

  1. Corinna, more lovely finishes! The added charms are such a nice finishing idea. Cute snowman! I do like Homespun Elegance's designs, especially their winter/Christmas ones.
