So...for the first theme, I stitched Two Turtle Doves from a Better Homes and Gardens Publication that was first published in Cross Stitch and Country Crafts from the March issue 1989. This was stitched on 28 ct. linen over one.
The second theme was Holly Jolly Christmas and I found this adorable pattern "Be Jolly" by Angel Stitcin' from the JCS ornament issue 2013. I also stitched this on 28 ct. over one on gold sparkly fabric.
The third theme was an ornament stitched from the JCS ornament issue of 2008. I chose this yellow house by the Victoria Sampler. It was stitched on golden harvest linen 32 count over 2. Hopefully I can finish this up soon, I think it's adorable!!
For good measure, I also stitched an ornament from the 2018 JCS ornament issue City Sidewalks by Glendon Place.
Off to find patterns for the different themes in March! It's fun watching all your projects...and when life in the fast lane slows down, I'll try to come back and post comments. I'm hoping I can keep up with this challenge. Wish me luck!

Well done on all four ornaments! That 2008 issue was a good one, I've liked all four designs shown on here and want them for myself now.
All your choices are wonderful! A very beautiful work!
All of your finihes are very pretty.
Oh my goodness so many beautiful ornaments! I would love to see the Victoria Sampler one when you build the house. And I don't know what it is but lyrics from Christmas songs just get me every time. Beautiful stitching!
I love that last one! I considered stitching that and seeing your finish, I just may do it!
I love that peeking Santa from JCS ornament issue 2013. I also can't wait to see the little house finished up. I'm not brave enough for that one. Lovely stitching.
So many cute pieces you stitched! They all look great.
You've been so busy! They are all lovely!My favorite is that tiny turtle dove!
