Vacation Cross Stitch Finished Projects

Well, it was a busy time back home but I did manage to cross stitch a few ornaments.

First, we have the penguin sliding down the mountain. This one took me all day Saturday at the airport and on the plane and I finished it on Monday morning.



Second, I cross stitched a reindeer head with NOEL connecting the antlers. This was a pretty quick project which I finished on Tuesday.



Third, is Santa ice skating, I finished this one on the trip back home on Monday.



Somewhere in between, I finished a project I had started years ago on "Sand Island, AL" lighthouse, which I won't post here since it's not Christmas related.

It was a great week visiting with family and friends with a bonus of three completed cross stitched ornaments.

Christmas Ornament Kits by Mary Engelbreit - Finished

I bought two Mary Engelbreit cross stitch kits from Michael's for 99 cents each this past Christmas. I never got around to stitching them until this week. I finished both this week and they turned out pretty good.

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.

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.
