A Santa Ornament

Gentle Readers and Dear Friends thanks for stopping in today - An exchange I sent has reached it destination and now I can post a snap....  I took part in the Prairie Schooler Ornament Round recently over on the HOE.  Here is a shot...


This little guy is from "Prairie Year II" - Book 23 - December.  I do love the Santa's that PS turns out and with the little teddy bear peaking out how could I pass!!  May partner on the receiving end was Anne over at Feather Stitching - stop on over at her blog.....  she does some lovely work!!

Last night I sat a fussed with my newest sampler stitching and switched out some silks and I think I am getting to where I am happier with it, but not all the way there.  So there is more switcheroos tonight and maybe, just maybe by the end of the week I will show a little snap.

There you go sports fans - short and sweet - keeping with today's Post theme..... there are only 236 Days left until Christmas.......  Ho Ho Ho!!!

Take care,
edgar

  1. Only 236 days left!? I've already started to accumulate some hand-made gifties. I guess I'm ahead of the game. It must be this new high-speed connection freeing up all my time. Ha Ha, I mean Ho,Ho.

  2. The only preparation for Christmas I have made thus far has been to pull the DMC for Teresa Wentzler's Woodland Angel Christmas stocking which I plan on stitching for my grandson.

  11. That is a great ornament Edgar. You certainly can't go wrong stitching a PS piece for an exchange.

    And don't remind me how many days before Christmas - it's horrifying how quickly it comes around every year.
