Between Thanksgiving and New Years I managed to get in a little bit of ornament stitching from the 2008 JCS Ornament issue. Far too often I have purchased the magazines, dreamed through them, then set them aside. This year I determined to actually stitch some of the ornaments - easy ones that required little brainpower as my limited supply was being used elsewhere. :)

This last one is my first little finish of 2009!

All these designs were stitched out of little bits of leftovers from my embroidery basket. I think the fabric is just large enough to make pinkeeps or something similar. Who knows when I'll get a finishing day now that we will be getting back into the normal school schedule tomorrow.

Great job, Von! I love them. It's always nice to make something so lovely from little oddments of thread and fabric!
Von your ornaments all look gret! I always look through my scraps of fabrics first when starting an ornamnet. Why cut up a virgin piece right?
You've been busy there-what sweet pieces!
I see you changed your blog theme too-love the colors.
Happy New Year!
Wonderful ornaments Von, you've been busy!
Lovely ornaments Von, congratulations
You have created some beautiful finishes out of those "little bits of leftovers"!!!
Lovely selections to stitch, Von!
Thanks so much for the beautiful card and gold needle you sent. I did blog, but forgot to personally thank you. :D
So pretty :) And all of them I'd choose myself!
