I wish everyone the very best in 2010. I surely do not know how the past week has gone by so fast. I had to work New Years Eve and New Years. Not too bad though as there weren't many people flying.I have finished stitching Little House Needleworks Fa La La as part of the 2010 Ornament a Month SAL. I stitched it on 30 count R&r Cappucino. It was the first time I stitched on30 count.
It turned out larger than I expected, but I am still going to finish it as an ornament. I am going to use wool for the backing fabric (if I can find any). I think it will be prettier using wool than a print fabric. I have the Dmc White Perle Cotton to make the twisted cord.
This was actually a simple stitch but I had trouble and had to frog the left tree not once but twice because I was a half stitch off. I think the Fa La La was what threw me off.

I have also been wanting Chilly's Gift Freebie by Stitchy Kitty. I think he is just adorable and I wanted to stitch with those funky colors. lol. I have him all most finished and hopefully today I will be done. I really like the 28 count Luguana and I am pretty sure I will be using it again this year.

I will post pictures as soon as I get these two finished. I am going to stitch a scissor pocket for an exchange and am still searching for a pattern. Not having much luck. The ones I find and really like have a lot of speciality stitches. Scary to me. lol.
May the Stitch be with you.
