I've been stitching whenever I can. All the stitching I have done so far this year is destined to be gifted at Christmas, so everything I have stitched in the past month is eligible for the GG update. And they will all be made up into Christmas ornaments in the next week or so.
I'll start with the ones I most enjoyed stitching - four button and/or bead decorated Christmas trees that will be added to the 'take home gift' basket for adult Christmas visitors.
This Santa is for a young niece. The chart came from BH&G's Treasury of Christmas Cross Stitch Designs (2003).
Four more ornaments for neighbour children. The stocking design is adapted from the chart in LA's Christmas Caboodle leaflet, and the tiny teddy is adapted from Graphworks Mini Motif Designs Christmas Vol 8.
And, last but not least, a TIAG angel for a dear friend.
So, there it is - a review of my February stitching efforts.
That's a fantastic amount of stitching and Gifted Gorgeousness. The trees are my favourite too, especially the orange one as it's such unusual colours for Christmas. :)
ReplyDeleteRachel, I have a friend who is orange-obsessed. I stitched that one with her in mind!
DeleteYou hav been busy. One day I intend to do the TIAG angel too. x

ReplyDeleteMy goodness have you been busy! These are all gorgeous! As usual I am a big fan of your trees. I just love the size, the bling, the multiple colorways. They are my favorite thing you make!
ReplyDeleteI'm not usually fond of orange, but I love how the little stars turned out on that Christmas tree!
