my starters for Etsy - and a pig...

I have spent the past week or so working on the lovely pieces of red and green 11HPI aida fabric that my Mum had bought for me. After a few trials and errors, like these:


I managed to find a snowflake pattern that only uses white thread (which looks much better than gold on this material) and is just the right size so that by the time I sew up an ornament, it`s neither too small nor too big for a tree decoration.



And if you`re curious what`s been happening elsewhere, in that parallel universe where holidays like Halloween or Christmas don`t count...? Well, I stitched a little pig!
