Christmas--already?!



The Christmas ornaments I finished earlier this year are starting to trickle in from the finisher. These four little ornaments were the last of the "teeny ornaments" from Fireside Stitchery's club a few years ago.

I definitely have a lot of Christmas ornaments now, so I am going to try to refrain from adding any more to my stash. I probably have about another half dozen or so to think about. Oops. I just went to check my inventory. There are at least 20 more Christmas items. Ashley thinks we should put up the needlepoint tree next week. Still a bit early for me; haven't given up my flip flops yet.

I think I understand now, the fascination with Halloween needlepoint. It's the next holiday to obsess over once you've made too many Christmas items.

Off to work.

I'm with Ashley, put up the Xmas tree now!

These are too pretty not to display all year. Maybe you can put one up on your bulletin board in the kitchen each week? Switch them out weekly so you get to really enjoy them?

You do need Halloween items. Halloween canvases don't really tempt me but I have stitched three and have two more in the stash. So be careful. If you start you won't be able to stop!

Too cute. Yes, halloween seems all the rage. Hope to see you at the Edwardian Needle sometime this fall/winter.
