Biscornu

This is not the christmas theme, but I have tried to sew a biscornu together with pearls, and after that was not so difficult, as I had thought, I am dreaming of christmas decorations with pearls in gold, red , green, and silver or blue, and lots more.....

Mar 2/10

Watching the Olympic Games for hours on end gave me lots of stitching time as well! Here are the results:



"Snow Merry" by Homespun Elegance was stitched on a mystery piece of 14 count Aida that I found in my pile of stuff and stitched with mystery threads.




 "Peace" by Blackbird Designs was stitched on 14 count Aida with mystery threads during the men's curling gold medal game which I watched with a handful of fellow curlers at the local curling club.

Both designs are from JCS 2009 Ornament edition.
