Santa made a little surprise stop yesterday :-) My dear friend Margaret sent me this beautiful ornament by Plum Street Samplers. It is so perfectly stitched and finished, and I just adore it! She also sent me a packet full of unbelievable stash too! Wow, you spoiled me so much - thank you Margaret! The ornament went straight to the Christmas Shrub ;-)
I finished another Christmas ornament today - one that will go in the big basket and eventually be mailed to some unsuspecting stitching friend next fall...
OK... time to buckle down! My SBEBB ABC Exchange is due to go out on Wednesday, Dec 31.... but I got myself in too deep with this one and the stitching is soooo slow, not to mention the assembly that is yet to come... I really better buckle down!
Stitched on today: Finished a Christmas Ornament, and stitched on SBEBB ABC Exchange

What a lovely ornament you received, the dove is so pretty. I love the little Gingerbread Boy ornament you did as well, to cute. It matches so nicely with your earlier finish of Joy. Good luck finishing up your exchange piece, hopefully it goes quicker for you than expected.
