Work on Celestial Dragon


Last weekend I took the time to do the finishing on my March ornament.  I whip stitched it with beads around the border.  Instead of filling it with batting, I went out and bought crushed walnut shells.  I have to say they give a nice shape and weight to the item you're finishing.  I found them in the bird aisle at a big chain pet store.

Today I picked out my April ornament and decided to get a start on it, and well finish it too!
