Christmas Ornaments, Finishes, Stitch-alongs

Small ornie finish

19 March, 200825 February, 2012 Anne S

Still feeling like cr*p, so I took another day off work today to blob out … and managed to start and finish this ornie for this month’s SAL challenge on the XSers Yahoo group.

Poinsettia by Brittercup Designs
from 2007 JCS Christmas Ornament magazine
Stitched on 28ct mystery linen
Substituted threads with those in my stash – used GAST Gold Leaf, Crescent Colours Cupid and Weeping Willow

The Nurofen I’ve been chewing every day has been doing wonders for my foot, if nothing else! Probably helped by the fact I’ve been sat on my fat backside all day on my bed … 😉

Oooh, I like that ornament. I might have to do that one myself at some point.

Not allowed to say things like ‘fat backside’ when referring to oneself! It’s a rule here. Not good for the self image….

How did you find that brittercup flower to stitch? I tried stitching one the other day, with a kitty in it, and that d*mned thing kept tripping me up on the count. They look so easy! Grr!
