Ornament #4 - Peace on Earth

 

I stitched and finished another ornament from Heidi's free ornament designs.  This one is part of two offered in April 2009.  You can click here for the pattern. Thanks Heidi for the pattern!!

Ornament #3 - Candy Canes

 

Design - Candy Canes

Designer - Heidi

I decided to stitch this sweet little ornament this afternoon and I had one problem after another.  Ever had a day like that?  First, the candy canes should be red and white but the white did not show up on my cloth.  So, I had to improvise.  I like Heidi's original design much better but this will work.  Now I just noticed that I did not put the year on there.  *sigh*  My sewing machine didn't want to stitch and kept clogging up in the bobbin.  It was just one of those days!  So, please don't judge Heidi's creative endeavors by my poor stitching!  She is very talented and I can't wait to stitch all of her Christmas designs!

Ornament #2 - NOEL

 

Design:  NOEL

Designed By: Sandra Longan Miller

This is a freebie offered by Sandy on her site, Stitchin' and Life in a Small Town.  I just love her designs.  She has another one, Merry Christmas, that I would like to stitch as well.  I changed the colors she had listed because I used what I had on hand.  This just goes to show that a great design will hold up to a variety of color schemes.  Thank you Sandy for offering this to us!
