More Jan Ornies

I was going to post these as my Feb ornies, but why wait?
I'm still feeling super-inspired to stitch and finish Christmas ornaments :)
The amount of pleasure and satisfaction I feel is absurdly disproportional to the size of the finished piece, lol.


This was a real pleasure to stitch.
Thank you so much Tanya for such a sweet pattern!



Christmas Eve Flight
freebie by The Sampler Girl found here
fabric:  28ct "staci-dyed" evenweave
fibers:  Crescent Colours; Wild Berries, Roasted Chestnut and Milady's Teal


And another oldie-from-the-drawer...



Thanks for dropping by.
Happy Tuesday and Happy Stitching!

    Hi Staci,

    How are you today?? As I type this it is Friday night and the weekend
    has begun. Always reason to
    celebrate, don't you think??

    Love your newest Christmas ornament
    finishes as featured so beautifully
    here. Love the blue ribbon and the
    rusty bells that trim Christmas Eve
    and the "To Ewe" ornament is so
    darn cute I could scream! Lol!!
    Sorry ... Fridays tend to make me
    giddy.

    And if you feel inspired to
    continue stitching and finishing
    Christmas ornaments then you
    should just go ahead and do so.
    After all Christmas is just eleven
    months away ... and counting.

    Have a fabulous weekend Staci!

    Cheers!
