Rita's Sept. 2016 (Christmas Food) Ornament

This is literally hot off the ironing board and is from Lizzie Kate's Tiny Tidings XII.  I used Wichelt's lambswool 32 count (over 2) with mostly the recommended floss colors. (I subbed out a couple of colors that I didn't already have in my stash.)   The heart button was just one from my stash.

When my 4 kids were living at home, we'd always leave out some cookies and milk for Santa (and carrots for the reindeer) and Santa would always leave a thank you note with some advice to the kids about being good for the upcoming year...so this was an obvious choice for me to stitch.
