MERRY CHRISTMAS

I have been involved in a small ornament exchange through the Yahoo Group Surface Design. I thought I would share the three ornaments that I have received.

This ornament is from Tracy Borders in Bothell, Washington.

The slippers are from Aynsley McKay in Napoloen, Ohio.

This ornament is from Adele Thomas in Devon, U.K.

HAVE A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS

Needlepoint Ornaments

There are so many wonderful threads to stitch with, it is hard to know where to start. I enjoy making small ornaments where I can use some of these threads. The threads that I used are from Rainbow Gallery. The ornaments are stitched on 18 mono canvas. The small ornament is 2 1/2" sq. and the large one is 3 1/4" sq. I like to cover the backs with Ultra Suede. It is always nice to have a few small projects to take, when you are on the go. Rainbow Gallery has many free patterns on their site that are fun to use with different threads.
