The robin is from the Victorian designs someone here sent me (I've done several from those) and the two cardinals are from a Dimensions pamphlet (#314) called Holiday Mumms, by designer Debbie Mumm. I bought it several years ago, so not sure if it's still around.

Thanks for the info--I'll be doing a bit of searching--especially like the Holiday Mumms ones.

Terrific job on the cards Wandatoo!!!

Such beautiful christmas projects! I love the idea of using a small pattern for christmas cards!!

Love the designs, Wanda!

Great Stitching everybody

Really beautiful cards Wanda!!!!!!!!

Wonderful cards and ornaments. Not to mention fabulous presents. Well done, everyone!

I just finished stitching this up--it one of Mabel's lovely designs and I really enjoyed stitching it!!
Click on the picture to see it full sized as photobucket was not cooperating for me today

That's lovely! Can I find the design on here somewhere?

Lovely stitching Karen

Hi Wandatoo
If you send Mabel a pm asking for the design, I'm sure she will gladly email it to you.

I just found this thread...what a great idea! There is some lovely stitching on here, and very inspiring!

This is my first attempt at a stitched ornament.


Stitched 2 over 2 on Enchanting Lair's 40 ct Blue Frost.

Looking forward to seeing more work from everyone!

Love love love your snowman!!! And I really love how you finished it!!! Very nice!!!

Kyla, that's a lovely ornament, the sparkles in the material work great with it and your finish is just stunning!

Karen, lovely to see it stitched up --but brave you for attempting all those fractionals on aida -- I'm safely doing mine on evenweave

Wanda, if you PM me I'll gladly send you the chart to use.

Great Job Karen!!

Great Job Kyla - especially since it was a first attempt, I surely don't think anyone would have known if you hadn't told it .

Oh he is a gorgeous little snowman!!!!!!!

Well done, everyone!

gorgeous stitching everyone

WOW all the Christmas stitching looks great!

I have been stitching a Christmas based design, but its not done and I doubt it will be done for Christmas, but here it is:
