Cross-Stitch Christmas Ornament - Uh-Oh! Santa

My eighth stitching project and final for a while. I haven't found the next design I want to stitch and I'm kinda bored with the stitching.

But this one is stitched on Red Aida 14-count fabric and is a Santa Claus trying to either fit down the chimney or squeeze out of the chimney. At the bottom Uh-Oh! is stitched.

Cross-Stitched Christmas Ornament - North Pole Post

My seventh stitching project for this Christmas.

This one is stitched on White Aida 14-count fabric. It is North Pole Post by Reindeer and has Santa's face stitched in the middle of a postage stamp design.

This one took a little longer because of several color changes and the stitched design size is a little larger than the ones I have stitched recently.

1. Red Candle with Flame
2. Red, Green, and Yellow JOY

Ready for the Slopes

I completed the second stitching project for this Christmas. I figure I'll stitch a bunch up then I sit down at one time to make the ornaments. I can stitch on my lunch hour at work and at my break times.

This one is stitched on Christmas Green Aida 14-count fabric. It is a penguin with snow falling around him and he is holding snow sticks. He is wearing a Christmas Santa hat and wearing a green scarf. I actually started and finished this one in two days.

Christmas Mouse by Candlelight

I cross-stitched this years first Christmas ornament. Well I haven't made it into an ornament yet but it'll happen.

It's a Christmas mouse sitting beside a candle. It was a kit I picked up sometime throughout history and one of those projects I began and put down because I had the need to move on. But the stitching is complete and I just need to make it into a cute ornament for the tree.

Let the Christmas Fun begin!

The weather turned cool and my mood turned to Christmas. Now I'm OCD about buying and making Christmas ornaments. I'm planning lots of projects to keep me busy until Christmas arrives. Hopefully, I don't run out of steam before it arrives.
