Back to Mystery IX, but I quit early tonight. Tired. But, working my way well around the third corner now... nice to have a month when this project does not cause a lot of stress just to get it done before the month ends. Still have a ton of unused fibers, though, and will they actually all get used up in Part 12?I got an email from Dianne tonight letting me know that her birthday gift arrived safely...Dianne loves gardening as I do, so the choice was easy for her... here it is (surprise, surprise - a fob - LOL):
Q. Do you stitch Christmas ornaments? If so, how many do you stitch each
year and for whom? If not, why not?
A. The answer for me is easy - not yet. I am just now trying to learn finishing techniques, and I am hoping that next year my friends certainly will be receiving Christmas ornaments from me!
Stitched on today: Women of the Mayflower, started another gift, and Mystery IX

Carol - your scissor fob is just gorgeous,love the colors. It's sort of "Christmas-y" as well. Great work!
Another gorgeous fob!
Carol your scissor fobs are all lovely. You're making a very good work on them. Congrats!
Mystery IX is looking lovely Carol. Have you done many of the Chatelaine mysteries. I was thinking of joining in the next Christmas one but think I might wait and see other people's WIP on the first part!
The fob for Dianne is very pretty. I love the colours.
Mystery IX is really looking great Carol, and that fob is so lovely! :)
Another fabulous fob! And Mystery X looks great! Is there another mystery sampler starting in January or are you all mystery-ed out?
Your fobs are so lovely Carol, and each one is so different from it's sisters. They are sure to be treasured gifts.
Love your progress on Mystery IX - the end is around the corner. I think it is just gorgeous!!
You've totally got the fobs down--and Christmas ornaments won't be any harder for you--your workmanship is so lovely. I love the peppermint rose fob!
I will treasure the fob! I can't believe it only took you a day to stitch.
I only have one other Just Nan that I made years ago-Big Bee, Little Bee, so you know I like her designs.
I love to watch your progress on your mystery. It's so beautiful
Beautiful fob, I bet Dianne loves it.
The fob is so pretty. Is the fob design only available through CATS?
You did a great job finishing and stitching.
And a very lovely fob it is! You'll do fine finishing ornaments. I'm sure of it.
The mystery sampler is so pretty, and so detailed. Is part 12 the last part?
The fob was lovely, you do such a nice job on finishing these, I can't imagine you'd have any difficulty finishing a Christmas ornament if you make them.

Beautiful fob! Great choice on the design. M9 is looking fantastic too...I am also wondering what next month will bring.
Thank you for your answer and your vist to my blog. Could you
tell me what GWP stands for?
I am just lost. Thank you so much.
Wow, you are just a gift stitching machine lately! They are all just lovely:)
Ooooooh, Peppermint Rose is gorgeous! I'll have to stitch it someday. It's really nice to see it stitched up, since the chart is just black and white. :)
Your fob is gorgeous, I love the design very much this time as well. I love seeing how you have taken to finishing these and I'm sure when you branch out to other things, as you want, they will all be beautiful as well. Amy is chuffed to bits to be on your blog roll :-))
