December Already?

Wow! I can't believe it's the first of December already! Seems like this year has just flown by so fast! So much has happened over this year it feels like a roller coaster ride.

I have been busy with my stitching over the last month or two. I recently "taught" a class at my local LNS on how to make a biscornu. That was a big step for me since I don't do crowds or people very well. I am glad I did it though, it took me out of my comfort zone and I needed it. This is one of the biscornu we did......
Here's the top view....the pic does not do this one justice. It's very elegant looking in person and I think it's one of the nicer ones I've done. I believe the chart was a freebie from flossbox.com
Next up is a round robin. I was the final person in this round so I got to do the patriotic snowman....it was a nice change since it's fall and I've been seeing so many fall type things lately.
Here is the entire piece all finished with everyone's stitched parts. Isn't it adorable?! I believe this is a stoney creek chart...not sure though.
Next we have my round robin that was returned to me. I love the way it turned out! The ladies did an awesome job. Just need to iron it and finish it into *something*...just not sure what yet. Any ideas?
I have three options rolling around in my head....a holiday pillow, frame it or turn it into a flat fold. What do you think it should be?

Next on my stitching list is a final round robin then I'm going to pull out 2 of my UFO's and try to get them finished before Christmas. If I succeed, one will end up being a gift and you'll see it in my next blog update. Wish me luck on getting done! Happy Stitching everyone!

  1. Both are great finishes. I think I'd make the four little snowmen into a pillow, and the winter wonderland into a flatfold. BUt whatever you do with them they will look gorgeous.
