May, June, July...

I got behind on my ornaments, so June & July are small ones so I could catch up - also because I have some finishing ideas that required them to be small.

May: Hummingbird (from a little kit)

June: Cherries (just winged this one)

July: Fish (freebie found on this blog)

I really need to start my finishing soon :D

October Pinecone

My pinecone is from a PS leaflet...if memory serves, it's called Holiday Harvest. I haven't had a lot of stitcing time lately so it felt great to finish this.

August Rose

Finally finished my rose (bud)...found this in my stash and I don't remember who designed it.
It was a freebie I found on the web
It looked like a rose to me and I really liked the colors and design.
So if anyone knows the designer, please feel free to mention it.
I also found the fish I want to stitch for July. That one was a toughy for me.
Stay tuned for my July ornament.

June -- Fruit

Her is my June ornie . I chose a bunch of grapes from a Dimension Leaflet that I have had for a long time. A lot of detail but I enjoyed stitching it.  I just need to make it into an ornie.

May -- Bird's Nest

Here is my Bird's Nest for May.  It is a small from one of the Dimension leaflets that I have.  It was fun to stitch -- I just need to finish it into an ornie.

April's Ornament

Hello. 
Slow to SAL, but I got April's Rabbit Ornament done.

Have a good week.

Sept. ornament

I chose a teapot from a CEC leaflet for my Sept. ornament. I stitched it with the recommended floss on a piece of yellow mystery fabric from my stash.

July ornament

Here is my July "Fish" ornament. The design is from Les chroniques de Frimousse. I stitched on 18ct Light blue aida with my chosen DMC threads.

It has been very hot days here in Japan...
Have a nice summer and Happy Stitching!

August Rose

Here's my August rose ornament. It's a section of a larger freebie by Kirsten Schmidt (Kissy Kross) called Grow Some Love. I thought it was a perfect choice for this theme.

June ornament

finished this a week ago now on to July. Must put my thinking cap on for this one.
This was a freebie from By The Bay NeedleArt.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer, we are here...

My Fish

It took me a while to find/decide on a fish but I did and just finished it. It's a freebie from the blog http://www.xstitchhappy.com/ . I thought it was especially appropriate for me to stitch because we had a koi pond at our house before this one. I miss watching those fish (they'd eat out of my hand) and listening to the waterfall.

I used DMC variations for the main orange, the greens, and the yellow.

April Ornament

Well I finally managed to stitch my April ornament among all the other stuff I had to do, gardening, planning a wedding and playing with my new grand-daughter (3 mo. old).
I am sure everyone recognizes this pattern from JCS ornament issue.
My May ornament was already stitched unfortunately I left my stitched piece in Florida before coming back to Canada. So I will post it when I return in the fall. I stitched Quaker Nesting Bird from Aury
Well now I am on a roll, on to June.

July Fish

I stitched fish for the July theme. It's a design of Elena Kogan.

April Rabbit

This little rabbit from the Rabbit Race was a little to slow to make in time:

June ornament

Here is my June "Fruit" ornament. It's not a "Fruit" stitch design but the finished shape is a strawberry, i.e. a "Fruit"! The design is from Aury's blog. Thanks Aury for sharing the pretty design! I stitched on 16ct Antique white aida with my chosen DMC threads.

Happy Stitching!
