So sorry that I have been in absentia from this blog but I have been quite ill with the double whammy of tonsilitis and the flu! It certainly knocks you out, that is for sure!
Anyway, I am back on deck now and I am going to try to catch up with all things bloggy!
So, to start with, I am announcing the themes for 2016. Thanks for all of the great suggestions, I have tried to make them broad enough to incorporate everyone's preferences.
January - Music
This could include carol singers, musical notes or musical words
February - Snow
Think snowflakes, snowmen or wintry scenes
March - Santa and his helpers
This includes Mrs Santa, elves, Rupert the red-nosed reindeer, whoever you like
April - Ornaments/decorations
Lots of options here: ornies, candy canes, baubles, snowglobes, wreaths, candles, flowers, poinsettias
May - Reindeer
A very popular option
June - Christmas animals/pets
Dogs, cats, mice, (reindeer?- lol!)
July - Free Choice
Whatever takes your fancy!
August - Christmas clothing
Mittens, stockings, Santa hats, can you think of anything else?
September - Christmas Food
Yum yum! Puddings, cakes, gingerbread men and houses, candy canes, mince pies
October - Toys and presents
Let your imagination go wild: nutcrackers, toy soldiers, beautifully wrapped presents, etc.
November - Oh Christmas Tree!
Self-explanatory really
December - Angels/Nativity
Most appropriate theme for the Christmas month!
So, we should all have lots of fun with these themes next year, I think!
hugs, Kaye

You are so welcome, my dear!
Love all the months! Glad you are feeling well enough to blog again. Missed your posts big time!
Great themes. I'll be rummaging through my JCS back issues to see what fits.
And where I can shoe horn dragons in! Glad you are feeling better now.
Brilliant themes for next year Kaye :)
Jo, dragons could go into pets... And Santa's little helpers :)
Hugs xx
Great themes!
Lovely themes for next year...I've been a bit scattergun with my stitching of late but will get back into ornie stitching next year - promise!
Great themes with lots of latitude for choice! Glad you're feeling better Kaye - you were missed!
I am looking forward to 2016!
It'll be great!
Thank you!
Thank you Kaye!
I have been a bit absent too. Hopefully I can get back into it. I have an ide for my Xmas gifts and this could work/help me get them done
Oh great, I think I should find something for each month. I'll create a new folder for this SAL :))
Excellent idea, Brigid.
Thanks, Bea.
That's okay -we can all be like that sometimes.
Love the themes-well done! Should give us lots of fun stitching in the next year:)
I'm having fun picking out which ornament to stitch for each month. I'll probably change my mind through the course of the year though :-)
I am a bit late Kaye / sorry for that ! There is one question from me! Can I join this blog with my own designs? However,I'd like to be added within this SAL too!
Thanks in advance :)
