Another January Ornament finish

I have decided to try to follow the LHN/CCN Christmas Ornament SAL on Facebook this year, as well as stitching with Andrea.  I was able to get January done.  I chose LHN's Old Colonial.  I opted to put this year's date on mine rather than 1798.  I had ordered the R&R 32ct Winter Brew linen with the chart.  My small piece was very heavily creased from folding by the LNS.  I stitched my piece way up in the corner of that and trimmed it tight for this pillow finish.  I used Willow Green belfast for the backing, for a little bit of a twist.  I am pretty satisfied with those choices.  And... used what I had on hand and meets a stash buster goal for me too.
