July: Smalls and Ornaments

Okay, so I'm trying to learn how this new Blogger works and failing! This will be quick, it has not been painless for far.

Plans for working primarily on some Christmas ornaments in July went awry. I did manage to complete one HOD Chalk Ornament. The other projects completed was a third Cricket Collection Scary-corn and a FFO of Hello Summer by Priscilla and Chelesa of Stitching with  the Housewives.

When I get some more black perle cotton I'll add the trim to the witch ornament. Silent Night will be most likely be a flat finish as well. Hope to FFO that one with some others a group when I get a couple more of my Chalk Ornaments stitched. Hello Summer What's in my Cup was finished as a small pillow. I added Rick Rack with beads as my trim. 

I'd like to re-order these pics but it's a struggle right now. I hope I can figure this out and how to add captions before my next post.

Thanks for stopping by,

Most of my stitching for January was on Prairie Schooler Christmas Alphabet and Halloween at Hollyberry Farm. I don't have a current picture of PS Alpha but I'm working on block 10.  

This is my small start on Ann Roberts. I worked on it a few days this month so it's a little further along the this picture. 

January Finishes

Three of my 12 Days (Hands on Designs) are finally complete.
