Hello Friends! I hope you are well. If you know me, you know I work at really odd hours. I rarely pack in more than 6 hours of sleep a night. So, that means, one can easily find me up and piddling around at 3am or 4 am, when all is quiet at my house. I was too sleepy to do any real work when I woke up at 3am one day last week, so I sat in my chair and finished up my “Two Turtledoves” Christmas ornament. Pattern is The Cat’s Whisker’s “Twelve Days of Christmas Series”.
Here is a closer look at my “Partridge in the Pear Tree” Ornament that I finished up for Christmas 2012.
Not to be outdone, Miss Baby claimed this is her “Three French Hens” ornament, ha! You can be the judge whether the ornament fits the label… :)
Thanks for stopping by, Friends! Happy Monday, and Happy Week to you.
So very pretty….heirlooms for sure!
Love the ornaments. Do you have a tree that you put these on at Christmas. If not you should just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Your ornaments are beautiful, but it’s Miss baby’s that really puts a smile on my face. Have a great week. And, yes, I did sit at my machine this weekend. :)
Oh, my word! Those are sooo beautiful in their simplicity. You’re a very talented young lady. Your work is simply *amazing*.
Miss Baby is off to a great start. Yours are beautiful too, Wendy. I bet that you both had fun stitchin’.
Simple beauty!
awww, very sweet.
wow..they are lovely ornaments…
Beautiful ornaments. I think Miss Baby’s is lovely too! Good for your letting her stitch along with Mom.
beautiful ornaments, including Miss baby’s! I admire people who have the patience to do cross stitch!
Every year I make a new ornament for all the family. I love your cross stitch ornaments. Miss Baby’s is a keeper. Something to save for her for her first Christmas tree. Hugs
Very nice! And so cute that Miss Baby wants to follow suit.
I think we can all learn from Miss Baby – imagination is so important! And it doesnt matter what anyone else thinks about our creations because they are ours – a part of us, and no one can take that from us. Lol easy to say, harder to accept…. maybe we should all go back to visit our inner child…. I love your ornaments too Wendy!
Too cute! Happy President’s Day to you…
Three French Hens?! LOVE. Your Turtle Doves ornament is just lovely, Wendy. I’m not ready to think about Christmas again, though!
I love your cross stitch!! So it is okay to get up when you can’t sleep and do needlework? I, too, have done this on occasion but thought I was the only one!!
Those are beautiful Christmas ornaments!
