I decided this year to stitch up 2 small things for my good friend Lisa for her Xmas parcel. I stitched an ornament for her tree and a flat fold for her to display! I love both designs and was very pleased with the way that they turned out :) The ornament is LHN Woodland Snowfall stitched on 28ct Water Lily Lugana with the recommended DMC floss.
The flat fold is CCN Let It Snow stitched on 28ct Mushroom Monaco with WDW Union Blue, CC Bean Sprout and DMC floss. I also added some white beads and a snowflake charm. I'm so happy that Lisa loved it too :) I know I was so tempted to keep this one as I just LOVE Snowmen but I know that Lisa does too so this one would have a happy new home to go to! I also wanted to surprise her with something a little unexpected!

The last of my personal ornament exchanges arrived yesterday afternoon from Lisa D. Lisa stitched me this fabulous LK design stitched over 1! The stitching is so tiny and perfect and the finishing is fabulous, I just LOVE it. It is a wonderful addition to my tree, thanks again Lisa!
We had our first snow storm starting last night into today. We had quite a bit of snow but school buses have not been cancelled so it can't be too bad. I hate winter driving and this is my first test of it with my new car too! At least I don't work until tonight so wish me luck, the roads should be mostly clear by then!
