Serendipitous Jo's November Ornie - Tree

Throughout this year I have been stitching the Christmas Cubes by The Primitive Hare.  Each cube fitted one of the themes perfectly although I did have to stitch them out of order.

With no further ado, let's have a drum roll for the final Cube - H

stitched on 35 count Country Mocha from Willow Fabrics

Here they all are together:

And here are the four that I have finish-finished into cubes:

H will be joining them this week

Oh Christmas Tree....

Hi Jolly Elves, 

Not long now until Christmas (I am not even going to frighten you by saying how soon - lol!).

So luckily, I have this gorgeous PS Christmas Tree stitched up this month, all ready to be turned into an ornie.  Now, Prairie Schooler designs do not usually use beads but I could not resist blinging up this design from Book #150, "December".

hugs, Kaye

Two months rolled into one....

Hi there!  It is nearly the end of another month... goodness me this year is flying by!

As we all know this month's theme is presents/toys.  What a fun theme... there were so many things to choose from in my pile of magazines but in the end I picked a nice quick one!

This little Christmas Bunny was a freebie from a late 1990's/early 2000's issue of Cross Stitch Collection (I think...)  She fits in with the theme as she is holding a beautifully wrapped Christmas present :o)

The kit came with 18ct Aida - it is stitched with one thread of DMC floss.  (In the old days if they said DMC it was most likely really DMC thread!)  I even managed to make up the card as soon as I finished the stitching (not often I do that!!)

So that was October.... onto November's Christmas Tree theme!

Now is this cheating... I hope not... I want to call it brilliant planning because I have already finished my Christmas Tree for November!!

This design was published in the Just Cross Stitch Christmas 2015 issue.  The designer is From the Heart ~ NeedleArt by Wendy.  I didn't use any of the recommended threads - instead the lettering is stitched in Dinky Dyes "Pilbara", the tree foliage in Dragon Floss "Stem Green" and the trunk and star in DMC.

So that's me done and ahead of the game for a change.....

Happy Christmas Stitching
Hugs xx
