July 2016

 My girlfriends, nearing the end of the month and I come with a free choice.
Thank you for your kind words in the comments on the last post. You surely know that such words please and motivate.

My choice is simple. I found it on Pinterest:

July: Free Choice

My ornament for July is Dawn Lewis' 2001 Christmas Ornament.
It's been in my stash for awhile and I finally got it stitched.

July free choice freebie

Hey guys!

For my free choice I chose a Lizzie Kate freebie called Peace Joy Love.  It is stitched on a scrap of some sort of linen with threads I dyed myself.  I am so excited to have all these stitched ornaments hanging on my tree this year and glad I joined you all on this blog!

A bit wonky but July's ornie is done ....

This was Finish #2 on my Road Trip to Roma stitching - you can read all about my trip to Outback Queensland on my main blog, starting with this post, if you are interested.  

I am not overly thrilled with how it has turned out - not the design's fault but mine!  I made an error somewhere near the start, didn't pick it up until it was way too late, so had to ditch the idea of a border and create this snow "hill" instead - now it is a bit of an odd shape - may have to make it a bell-shaped ornie, I think, when I Finish Finish it.  Although, some other interesting shapes have been suggested to me, as well.

28 ct Ivory linen
Suggested DMC floss

I am so enjoying seeing what everyone else is stitching each month for the various themes.  Such beautiful stitching and such a great variety of ideas.

hugs, Kaye
