With Christmas coming around the corner, I thought I should get started on my ornaments. This is the Navajo mini-stocking. There are 3 mini-stocking designs to stitch on the plastic canvas. It is a kit from my sister who passed away. She gave me a set of 6 mini-stockings. I thought it would be nice to put them all on the trees when I am finished. The instruction says to stitch all 3 stockings before cutting around the stockings and to finished the backing. The first of the 6 is done and I have 5 more to go.

That will make a lovely and very personal set of ornaments!

Very nice Sue. It looks great.

They're going to be beautiful, Sue! What a beautiful remembrance of your sister.

What a nice way to remember your sister.

Very nice stocking. It will be interesting to see what each one will look like

I have only been away for a week, and so many new things! Great stitching everyone, and Mabel, your cards turned out to be wonderful!

I'll take pics of them once they're all made up into cards.

Do you know where I can get some simple card themes to use for our Christmas cards this year? Thanks, Dawn

Just finished this--stitched it up on a 14 count aida that has blue lurex thread woven throughout it.

He's adorable.

I'm not doing any christmas stitching this year and I have to say that it feels a little weird. I guess there's still time to whip something up.

Lovely little Teddy.

Pengwenn, I know what you mean, I had decided not to do any this year, after all I will be on my own probably, but then joined the christmas biscornu exchange, started stitching it and now want to do some more

Love your Tatty Ted Karen

Great work; he's very cute!

Lovely projects everyone
