2 Exchanges I Sent Have Been Received

Last week I posted the lovely ornament I received from Kay. I heard from her that she received the ornament I sent her so now I can show it to you.
 I stitched "Merry Christmas from Log Cabin Needleworks on 28ct DMC linen with the DMC colors called for in the design. I did however make a small change by replacing the stitched berries with seed beads.

Kay said she absolutely loves it and it has inspired her to try beading on her needlework :)

I also heard from  Lynn B that she received the Halloween Scissor Fob I sent to her for the HOE exchange. I stitched the little witch from Mary Garry's Seasonal Momentos 4 "October"  I stitched it on 28ct evenweave with the DMC threads called for in the design.  I found a package of these adorable pumpkin bells  in my buttons/charms box that I received from an exchange some time ago. I had forgotten I had them and just happened upon them and figured it would be perfect for Lynn's fob. It even jingles!

I am so glad that Lynn loved it! I really had fun making this for her.


Thanks so much for stopping by!

Both of these are very lovely, but I adore the witch, and how you used the plaid ribbon ruched around the edge.
