Joyful Night

Here's a little ornament I made as part of an exchange. It's Joyful Night from the 1998 Just Cross Stitch ornament issue. It was also reprinted in their 10th Anniversary Collection book as well.

It's stitched on 32-count Lambswool linen. I used all of the recommended DMC colors with the exception of the star. The color originally called for didn't show up very well on the linen, so I substituted a darker yellow instead.

Home for the Holidays

This was a freebie that appeared in one of the SB newsletters back in the fall of 2006. I ordered the kit from the shop to stitch it. I really love the over-dye they used in it.

Stocking WIP

I thought I would post a photo of my stocking (Sophie) that is one of my WIPs. I'm doing it as part of an SAL with another stitching friend of mine at our LNS. You can click on the image to see a larger view.



I have a couple of other Shepherd's Bush pieces that I've finished in the past. I'll post photos of those in the new days as well.
