Terra Fairy and a Ornament

This is what I was able to finish on Terra this week, not as much as I had hoped for but I am a little over 1900 stitches so i am fairly pleased. Only 600 more stitches to go before the top 3 rows are done :)

I was also able to get my febuary ornament done this week - well the stitching anyways. I think that I will be finishing this as a flat padded ornament but I need to get to Marden's in Waterville next week and pick up some trim, cording and a tassel.

Yet another Ornament Freebie

So while hunting the web for next month's ornament for the 2011 challenge I stumbled across this little cutie! I believe that this will be what I stitch for the February ornament. If you would like a copy of the chart click --------> HERE

Another Goal Down !!

Well I managed to stitch a little Reindeer Ornie last night and even get it finished !! I am just so proud of myself :) Now I need to pick which goal to wipe out next. I think I am going to bring Lissandrea out to see the light again, though Flower fairy's rest is screaming at me. I will be back later on today at some point with a picture of the Reindeer. The house is to gloomy right now for a good picture, I miss summer when the sun comes up early. I have been awake since 3am this morning waiting for some sunlight so that I can get a good photo of it. Anyways , off to go pull out Lissandrea.

Another cute Ornament Freebie

So while hunting for ornaments to stitch for the 2011 challenge of an ornament a month I stumbled across this little cutie. I really have been wanting to practice my bullion knots and this would be perfect for that ! Anyways if you want a copy of this chart click ------> Here.

I love mail !!

I received these in today's mail !! They are just the cutest little things. They were made for me by Cathy who is my partner in both the pincushion and ornament exchanges.She designed the pattern for the pincushion herself, I just wish I was 1/2 that talented!



Somehow Cathy found out that I collect reindeer ornaments !! I love this one, I have never seen this pattern before. The trim on this is so pretty, it's a white and gold cording. Thank you so much Cathy I will always cherish these.
