Gingerbread Ornament for one of my twin nephews

 

Finished Feb 4, 2012.  Pattern by Artecy, stitched with DMC Blanc, 326, and 925

Started Santa Hat Ornament, for my other newest nephew, also by Artecy

Also by Artecy, for St. Patrick's Day, a large 4-leaf shamrock.

This is on a blue overdyed Aida fabric, which did not photograph well.

Unfortunately, I have run out the  green for the shamrock, so had to order more.  

I will try to finish the Santa hat today while watching the Super Bowl today.  Go Giants!

Finish 5 for 2012

using WDW Lancaster Red, and Swamp Water, and

Embellished with  Medium Red Heart button by Just Another Button Company. 

I changed up the lettering, mainly because I ran out of Swamp Water, 

so the "be" is stitched with Antique Rose.
