A Snowflake Ornament finish

I can't believe Christmas is only 8 days away. I had so many things I wanted to stitch..but orders kept me from doing what I love. In Oct I had a Heart Attack,and that in itself took a toll on what I could do.
but I am sewing like crazy now to try to get a few gifts stitched,before I wrap gifts,shop,and get my tree ready...Not enough hours in the day for sure. I did finish two prim ornies,and this piece. I found this wonderful "freebee"design on Cross Stitch Happy
Using white 32 ct opalescent fabric and
Threadworks Blueberry...I added the blue  crystals to the sides. I think it came out so pretty...
I hope she likes it.. Lots of love went into Stitching it...
I just ordered a bunch of patterns from Nicoletta~ Nikyscreations.. Love her designs. I will put some pics up when they arrive.
I hope everyone is ready for Christmas...hopefully I will be by Christmas Eve...lol

Holiday Blessings

  1. Oh Marilyn!! So very, very, sorry to hear that you had a heart attack!! Oh my GOSH!! Truly hope things are under control and you are back on the road to health and healing. Very beautiful piece you stitched for your sister - she has to love it....And...ummmm...I'm so far behind for the holidays I'll never be caught up even for next year - but, you know what they say - it's going to come whether I'm ready or not. Wishing you a blessing-filled and joyous holiday season. Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin

    Guess being behind is all a part of this creating world of ours..lol

    signs when experincing a Heart Attack its not the
    same as for men..Glad to know your doing better.

  4. Oh my goodness Marilyn! Sorry to hear about your heart attack, that's such a scary thing. Girl, you better take it easy. You can't just bounce back from those things. Don't over-do and end up with another one. This would be a good Christmas for you to simplify! Glad you are back to sewing but please be careful.

    The snowflake is so beautiful! I love the blue and the crystals.


    Take care. Merry Christmas~
