Christmas Ornaments 2010

Every year Carol and I exchange ornaments, I always do cross stitch but Carol makes many kinds from fabric, wood, crochet you name it, she is supe talented! This year she sent me a wooden one, the details are amazing. She also sent me a caroler that is also a bookmark.

Thank you Carol!!! xxxx

Hardanger: The Dove's Eye

I have been working on my WIPs and trying to get the final part of Heirloom Nativity Sampler done. Its been difficult as I usually avoid embroidery. I did however find a great tutorial on you tube for 'The Dove's Eye' and wanted to share.

Happy new year to everyone! many wishes for many finishes ;)))

Madonna and Child

Carol received this , so I can show you this years exchange we did. Carol and I  have been exchanging for years, this year I decided to make the ornament by Brooke's Books in the Just Cross Stitch magazine (2010) Unfortunately my photography isnt that great, but this has wonderful colours as is anything Brooke makes.
