Another year - another stitching list. Mine looks somewhat like last year's list - predominantly Christmas ornaments. Because I'm a compulsive 'one project at a time' stitcher, I have no UFOs or WIPs, so all my projects are new starts. This year I plan to stitch 50 Christmas ornaments, all to be given as Christmas gifts. I also plan to stitch a Birth Sampler for my great-nephew, a name-sampler for a special little girl, and a Christmas project for myself - though I haven't yet decided what that will be. I will also finish a Candy-Cane Santa kit that my niece has started but hasn't the time to finish now that she has a new baby in the house.
So far in 2015 I have stitched, but not yet finished up, two ornaments from my list.
I still have some buttons to add to the second one. The inspiration for the design is a little stocking chart from LA's Christmas Caboodle leaflet (1986), but I have changed the size, pattern, colours, and contents of the stockings. The tiny teddy is adapted from a design in Graphwork's Mini Motif Designs Christmas Vol 8.
I can't resist adding this photo of Miss Angela sporting her new haircut - her first ever. It's actually a work in progress - being groomed is not Angels's favourite past-time!
I think she';s just gorgeous! She is now 6 months old.

You're off to a great start! Wow! 50 ornaments? I'm happy if I get over a dozen stitched.
Angela is adorable! Such a sweet face. :o)
I think that is amazing that you have no UFOs or WIPs. I don't have enough self-discipline for that. :O) Your ornaments are really cute.
Great job, and adorable puppy!
Oh, a dedicated one at a time-er? I've heard those existed! :-) Those ornaments are very cute! I can't wait to watch you finish about one per week. You go, girl!
