Once the gifts were out of the way, I could work on some projects for myself.
A garland of funky snowmen, from the 2008/2009 issue of
Quilting Arts Gifts:
My felt beads weren't actually beads (i.e., no holes for stringing onto novelty yarn, so instead I strung them onto thin black cord using a needle, tied knots to hold them in place, and tied two lengths of recycled sari yarn to each segment.
Tiny gingerbread houses, pattern by
Gingermelon:
There was a fourth house, but I sent it off to an aunt.
The start of an embroidered Christmas tree, designed by
Gingerbread Snowflakes:
"A Partridge in a Pear Tree" by Heritage Samplers (I think? The pattern logo/trademark/label is confusing, and googling "heritage samplers" doesn't result in anything helpful):
A needlepoint trio of the Magi:
I've had these guys for years, but I keep getting caught up in
big Christmas projects, so I've decided the only way I will get them done is if I stitch them in the off-season.
