March Ornament - Still Catching Up

This is my ornament for March: The Sisterhood's Quaker Flower stitched on 28ct Glasgow Linen [Color: Raw Linen] using Belle Soie Tortoise Shell and Lara Lilac, finished as a fringed pillow ornament with a hemp cord hanger. I am trying to decide which of four Prairie Schooler rabbit charts to purchase for my April ornament so I am still a bit behind. I am hoping to catch up completely in May.

Pretty! I love your "finishing" and the back too.

Will you finish all your ornine like this. It looks so easy and comes out great. Hey, where's February's? Can't wait to see more.

Hillery:
Yes, I am using the same fabric and the same finishing technique for all the ornaments. I am also making an effort to stitch all of the ornaments using Quaker motifs ... so far the first five charts were no problem. Scroll back a few posts to see Workbasket's Quaker Heart [a free chart offerred on the WB website] and scroll forward to see the April Quaker Rabbit [a free chart from Aury]. I'll start work on Aury's Quaker Bird in a Nest next week.
