Christmas Eve Ornament

I heard from my partner Lucy in the HOE Christmas Ornament exchange that she received the ornament I sent her. So now I can finally post it! Yeah!!
 I stitched "Christmas Eve" from The Sampler Girl  over 1 on 28ct DMC evenweave. I used DMC 839, 813 & 304 and also added some red seed beads to match the DMC as well as 2 jingle bells .
I have to Thank Mylene for her wonderful tutorial on how to add beads around the edge when finishing! This was the first time I tried doing it and although not perfect by any means I don't think I did that bad :)



I hope you all have a nice weekend!  Thanks so much for stopping by!!

What a lovely little ornie, your bead stitching is great!
I've never stitched a Sampler Girl design before, but purchased 'Dash away all' yesterday, so I hope to very soon!
