Happy New Year! A bit late don't you think? I started the year with grand intentions to do some interior updating in the house that we've lived in for close to 15 years. As some of you probably know, it's a long, slow process and I still feel like I'm camping out inside of my own home. Hopefully, that will all be behind me by the end of this month.
Stitching time has been scarce but I did manage a small start to my Beatrix Potter piece last month. I decided to stitch the piece on 32 ct. desert sand linen and to use Gloriana silk in the Rosewood color.
I sent two ornaments for our group ornament exchange at the beginning of the week. The first one was for Cathy B and I stitched her Prairie Schooler's Christmas Bell
The second ornament was for Carol. I stitched her one of the santas from The Prairie Schooler's Father Christmas leaflet.
I hope that they both liked what I stitched for them.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate your frienship so much.

A very good start on Beatrix Potter design.

Both ornaments are beautiful, Julianne! I agree, interior anything is a long, slow process...but so worth it. :) And it's never too late to wish someone a New Year!
Great start on Beatrix Potter and lovely ornaments. I'm sure that the person who received it will be very happy with it.
Nice to see you posting again!
Lovely start to Beatrix Potter, Julianne, and I absolutely love the ornaments. The blue PS Santa is one of my favourites.

Hello hon! Better late than never I say! huggles!
Beautiful stitching and finishing! And I hope your home improvements are going well. After 8 years in our home, we notice that some deferred maintenance might not be "deferrable" (LOL) much longer.
