I thought I had finished all my cross stitch Christmas gifts, but I've just added another five to my list. No stitching to show yet, but I will be back next month with the finished ornaments. However, I can show you a picture of most of the ornaments I have stitched this year. It's not a perfect picture - I did consider taking them out of their plastic bags to get rid of the glare from the plastic, but I decided that was too much work. They have now all been wrapped or placed in gift bags ready for giving.
I did make some crocheted booties for my newest great-niece. She is 3 months old now, and a very long thin baby with long feet. Her mother (my niece) complained that she was having problems with footwear - anything long enough in the foot to fit Sarah was way too big around her ankles. So I made some booties with long narrow soles and adjustable at the ankles. I used 8 ply wool, scraps that I had in the house.

Sweet bootees for your new addition to the family, they will keep the toes nice nd cosy.
Thanks for taking part in GG this month. I love the massed ranks of the Christmas ornies! You have made so many.
The bootees are so sweet and so thoughtful too.
