Finishes..... For me!!!

Greetings everyone!!!!

I'd like to offer a picture walk of a few stitches I sewed up this past week...... Goodies I will be adding to my collection...a few will be neighbors gifts..... These are designs I stitched in October....many are from the Just Cross Stitch ornament issue...other than the pencil thin Carriage House Samplings stockings.... Thank you to the stitching angel who gifted my that chart....




I love using vintage buttons.....



















...this fabric's white tonal print seemed to draw out the white in the cross stitch...











.....homespuns with hemp rick rack....





....simple added " x's" were a nostalgic touch...





...Marly's freebie....I just chose to stitch a portion of it.......




I hope everyone is readying for the big day......there sure does seem to be a lot if buzzzzzz in the air...

Peace and blessings......

Faye

I saw that you are using blogpress to post via your ipad. I have been trying to work out how to do this for some time so am now off to look at the app.

May Peace be your gift at Christmas and your blessing all year through

Please please tell me what pattern is the skinny "Merry Christmas" stocking pattern? I've done a search under Carriage House Samplings Stocking but can't find that particular pattern. All your stitching is beautiful.
