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

Crows finish

Just finished this with a wonderful design by Betty of PrimitiveBettys. Its such a nice crisp design..

Done on cream monaco cloth,using dmc and dinky dye silks 2 over2. Finished the bottom of the pillow and back with a tiny blended check in oranges,rusts and black,and then added a Large Vintage Button from my collection. Thank you so much Betty for the wonderful design!

In between orders, I am also working on a UFO I started last fall by Blackbird Designs..Maybe I

will get it finished this year in time for fall.

Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!
