My late January ornie post

A little late posting...but here are the ornaments that I stitched in January. I just hadn't had a chance to take pictures of them.

This is from Stacy Nash Primitives, Homespun Christmas Pinkeep Ornaments

This is JBW Designs, Christmas Motif Sampler

Thanks for looking!

gifts for the kids

Here are the three ornaments I've stitched for the kids for little surprise gifts. I'm going to make them a special ornament each Christmas from now on, as I also do for their wonderful Daddy.

Normally, I avoid aida but I just loved this deep, rich Victorian red. All three are stitched in either DMC or another colorfast floss for washability. ;) The talented designers are, from top to bottom: "Christmas Partridge" by Stacy Nash Primitives (Rowen's ornie), "Dash Away All" by The Sampler Girl (Max's ornie), and "Christmas Bear" by Beth Hendzlik (Nicky's ornie). Other than Rowen's ornament, I used my own choice of colors rather than those suggested, and made various other little changes.
