More Christmas





I thought I would share pictures of the wool ornaments I am making. Slow but sure. These will go on the tree after all the kids get married and take all their ornaments. These ornaments are from Indygo Junction. You can see the book and pattern if you are interested in making some for yourself.

Here is a feather tree that I keep up all the time. I have a collection of bird ornaments that I have gotten from Hallmark.


Here is my last Christmas decoration to show you. We have had our tree up since Thanksgiving weekend and it still smells so good. There are some close up pictures of the ornaments that are on the tree.





The new Red Delicious mystery BOM is up and ready to download. Click on the apple on the sidebar. I am doing mine in redwork. I am almost done with the first block.

With Passion, Carrie P.

beautiful ornaments your making.
your tree looks great, Love the tinsel, you hardly ever see anyone putting tinsel on their trees anymore.
If I had a real tree I would put tinsel on it!

Carrie,
Hello! Thanks for stopping by my blog to wish me a Happy Birthday. I thought I should find out who you are so here I am at your blog. I LOVE your wool ornaments. I realized this past week that my Christmas decor is hodge-podgy; hopefully next year all my Christmas items will be more rustic. Thanks for sharing!

I just love those wool decorations! You really have quite a talent, Carrie - and the tree is wonderful - who doesn't love real tinsel!
Cheers!

I love the Indygo Junction wool ornaments. I'm pretty sure I bought that book but I just can remember...or find it. I guess it's not enough to have everything in it's place but I have to know what I have too!
