Noel

I received word that my ornament reached it's destination. Watching the polls come in for a historical presidential election in the US, this is what I created:


Noel
Designer: Windy Willows (Japanese)
Time: Approx. 2 hours each side
Fabric: 14ct opalescent white aida
Fibers: DMC floss
Embellishments: silver cord, silver eyelets, red lace
Date: 10/4/08


I changed the chart to suit my idea for an ornament. I made this for Mel in Dubai as part of the SNS2 ornament exchange. It has also fulfilled my Christmas ornie SAL for November in two groups!

What a gorgeous ornament and I love how you finished it. I'm so bad at finishing projects & haven't even used my crop-a-dile yet. ;-( But I FINALLY made my first flatfold - thanks to your tutorial. Thank you so very much for your wonderful directions.
