Hello everybody! I've been a busy stitcher these last two weeks! First, I met up with a fellow stitcher from my Friendly Stitchers group last week. So much fun!! Gillie has a wonderful British accent, and we had a lovely time together chatting over a cup of coffee and doing a little stash enhancement. Gillie brought me a sweet pair of British flag scissors, which I didn't take a picture of cuz they were in use already. : )
While we were there I picked up the chart for LHN's "Hot Cocoa" ornament. Now you know that I've only ever made little pillow ornaments, but on the tree in the shop there were adorable flat ornaments that I commented on. Of course, Gillie said that I should try one... although, if I remember rightly, she hadn't made one either...
Anyway - here is my stitched and finished ornament to remember our get together...
TADA - a Flat Finish!!!! : ) Yay for me!!
Just a note... My aida was called "Lambswool" and it was almost too light. I had to change out ecru for B5200 and you still can't see it that well. I'd recommend a darker color fabric if you want to use the recommended colors!
And look what arrived in the mail for me!! From my sweet blogging / Friendly Stitcher friend Melissa...
Another flat ornament ... with SHEEP on it!!! : ) I love it Melissa! Thank you so much!!!!
That's all for me right now. I'm working on a Precious Moments piece for charity at the moment, but I think I'm missing some colors, so I might start another ornament. We'll see!
Thanks for stopping by!
