My March & April Ornaments

A Colonial Christmas Ornament by Cherished Stitches

Stitched on black 28 count Quaker Cloth with HDF "Tugtika" silk thread.

Started in March but not finished until April.


Toy Shop Sign by Carriage House Samplings
from the JCS 2007 Christmas Ornament magazine
Stitched over one on 28 count Natural Cashel linen with DMC threads and finished as a pinkeep. Started 23 April 2008. Finished 29 April 2008.

July and August finishes :-)

Yes, I'm a little behind. :-) I haven't finished off an ornament since June. Time sure did get away from me. But I have two finishes to report, Toy Shop Sign from CHS using the recommended 36 count Lakeside Linens with the DMC conversion and a tree (I can't remember the name) from Erica Michaels using the recommended 40 count Lakeside Linens using assorted Crescent Colours cotton floss both from the 2007 JCS Ornament issue. I have three more to finish off this week so I'll be posted those later. I met my goal of 12 finished ornaments in 2007! Thanks for such a wonderful stitch-a-long.

Carriagehousesamplings tree.

This is from a series of Carriagehousesamplings designs, I took this ornament and finished it as a 'Christmas tree' in a little pot.
