Hello dear stitching friends - I hope you have been enjoying the first few days of 2013! I would like to share the last stitchy finishes of 2012 with you. My mom and I finished our stitching on The Fairytale Advent Calender by The Little Stitcher before the end of the year! This was such a fun stitch - here are some pics:
The backstitching is also complete and they are now ready to be finished into little hanging pillow ornaments.
They are stitched on self-dyed 28ct evenweave in the recommended DMC threads.
Such a lovely quick stitch - I have been trying to decide which one is my favourite - I do love the reindeer and sleigh motif (23)!
I have really been enjoying the Christmas stitching (I have a few stitched ornaments from last year that still need finishing!) and decided to kick the year off with an 'Ornament for January'. Here is a pic of my first few stitches of 2013 - hopefully I will be able to share the finish soon :)
That's my update for today - enjoy the weekend and Happy Stitching!
Michelle
