Snow Bird

I've finished stitching one and a half ornaments this month to make up for my poor performance last month, but I'm only showing the finished one. It's Snow Bird by La-D-Da from the 2004 JCS ornament magazine. I actually had the recommended 36ct linen and thread, which was a minor miracle!


It's not finished finished as I didn't pack any fabrics or ribbons in the suitcase. I'm going to have a finishing frenzy later in the year when my stuff arrives.

Speaking of which - I was thinking of having a mid-year finishing weekend. Would anyone be interested in joining me? How does the first weekend of July sound?

Congratulations on finishing your ornament. I tend to do my finishing in batches since you have to drag everything out to do just one ornament.

Sweet ornament! Congrats!

The first weekend in July sounds perfect for a fury of finishing. I'm in and I will schedule the one at the shop that weekend too, we do one every quarter.

Beautiful:-) I had hoped to stitch this one this month, but did not have the Grecian Gold GAST handy... definitely hoping for May :-) Glad you are settling in well now!

Great ornie, I'm trying to have a month in hand to finish, but I'm away the first week in July :( Hope you'll post a pic of all your finishes?

Here's to successful minor miracles.... especially the ones on 36-count!

Very pretty bird!

I can't finish anything during the first weekend of July because we'll be travelling too. But I'll always cheer on the ones who are attempting to finish the ornies!

I love it! I will have to do it to keep my cardinal company.
