Louise, I love what you've done with Mabels SOTW SAL.

Kiers, Serinde, Mauveme and anyone else I've forgotten - Great work.

That card was so cool, mauveme!!

My BF asked me to do some metalic ornies for her daughter who just got married for their first tree as a married couple.
Couldn't figure out what to do then I found a chart I did years ago for my Bf when the girls were little. It was a box of ornaments, each in it's own compatrment, there were 11 ornaments and in the 12 compartment was a sleeping mouse, the first thing her daughter said was, "why is there a dead mouse in the box" I stitched 6 of the prettiest ones and used as much metalics as I could (shame you can't really see it but all the yellow areas are metalic along with some red green and purple areas.) On the back of the mouse ornmaent is "not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse"

Those are going to be such wonderful ornaments for their first tree. I love the sleeping mouse and I'm sure that is going to make your friend's daughter smile!

Linda, those are so precious!!! Great ornaments!!

Thanks, they are really tiny, just under 2in, square.

Those are perfect Linda, just the right size and I love the idea of the mouse.

Those are so cute!!!!!!!!!

Oh, I love the little ornaments! Cute

Staying with the mouse theme - this is my last Christmas gift just finished.
If it wasn't going to such a dear friend I don't think I could part with it.

That's adorable, and beautifully done too.

Love the mice!!!!!!! For some reason, I love mice when stitching... just not real live mice running around in the yard or anywhere else! The mouse ornament is really cute!
