L' R de rein ornies....

This is a freebie design I had run across by L'R de rien and had actually stitched it in December... I liked it so much that I decided to, yep, stitch it again in March .... Just getting around to finishing my finishes...You know how that goes...right???


I love the narrow red chenille trim....Thank you very much Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe!... And, there is one side note: I put a small "10" in the top left corner of each because I want my boys to have these ornaments one day as a momento of the year their grandmother passed away....2010... She would have like these ornaments so much since she loved about anything that had a redbird on it...

That's it for now....I have been busy in the craft room with a couple surprise goodies that have gone out in the mail...so, once I know the packages have been received in the mail, I'll give you a glimpse...

Hey~~Tomorrow is Friday... Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Beautiful ornament and Beautiful finishing! Also wanted to tell you that No, I won't be attending the Masters this year. I haven't been since 1993. I was 1 month pregnant then and suffering from "all-day-sickness". Just knew I was going to make a mess out there! LOL! I'll watch the last couple of hours of it Sunday, IF, one of my picks is in the lead.

What beautiful ornaments! Your boys will treasure them. I bought my girls both robin beads for their pandora bracelets this Christmas, as a symbol of their grandfather, who loved birds. Gorgeous work!

How thoughtful! My mother loved red birds as well, especially cardinals. Very lovely!

What a beautiful tribute to your grandmother. Makes me wish I had some keepsakes in honor of family members. Maybe I should get busy making my own.

Charlene ♥ NC said...

Such lovely red goodness! I especially love the little sampler girl in red! Gotta find that... Beautiful stitching!

Nancy said...

Beautiful ornaments Faye....you and I do love our reds!!!!!! I need to get some more done....maybe we can name one of the next colors after you!!!!
With doing all these trims I never have time for stitching....need to work on that. I truly miss it. Seems like I am always stitching a motto for a customer and don't get to "play" and stitch for me.
