I loved stitching this .....

Hello fellow elves,

Well, I am quite early, for me, in posting this month - Yay!  At the end of last month I was scrabbling for what to do for March - Santa and/or one or some of his helpers, when I turned to my old faithful, Prairie Schooler, and found Book #63  Christmas Samplers


And then my eye was caught by the middle sampler, "The Night before Christmas" and then I saw Santa on his sleigh with three of his reindeers and Bingo!  There was my March choice.

I went to my stash and found some great Crafty Kitten overdyed 32 ct blue linen and two days later I was finished!  Woo Hoo!


(It is much bluer than this - if I get a chance to take a better pic later, I will!)

This piece, of course, also counts for my Prairie Schooler SAL and for DUCJFC2016.

Can't wait to see what everyone else stitches this month.

hugs, Kaye

Very sweet, Kaye. I'm still working on January. The pattern is a bit more complicated than I anticipated....

I have just admired this little beauty on the Prairie Schooler blog. And yes, you are early for this month, lol. But I have also finished this month's ornie design but have to take pictures first.

So cute! I love the way you took something from a larger design to use for this purpose.

Thanks, sweet elves for your lovely comments.

Jo who can't think of a clever nickname said...

That's a nice way to stitch part of a larger design. Looks great as an ornie too.

Gillie said...

Well done, Kaye, I must admit I could do better at *extracting* designs from larger ones. Looks great.
