Elaine's February ornament

Barely made it! I've had the stitching done for a little while but just put it together tonight. I don't like the finishing or framing part so if I didn't have to do it for this SAL, it would probably wait a long time to be an ornament. :)
Hugs, Elaine

Kaye's February Finish

Hello fellow Halloween Sal-ers,

Here is my February finish - a real cutie from JCS Halloween Ornament Magazine 2012:



"Waiting" by Fern Ridge Collections (p.18).  I have my next piece all ready to start this morning on the train to work  - also from the same magazine.

It is lovely to see everyone's finished pieces,

hugs,

Jo's February Finish


Here is my stitching finished for February:

Jaunty Fox Fence Cat


It's a freebie from Jaunty Fox Designs found here.
Never heard of them?  I'm not surprised, they did this one freebie then vanished!

I stitched it on my favourite Burnt Orange Jazlyn 28count fabric.  1 over 1 using Anchor Black and a touch of DMC 728.  I experimented with the Anchor to see if it covered better than DMC Black.  It doesn't, but it's no worse either!

I'm not sure how I'll finish this one.  It's very small so would make a nice little sausage pillow.

Here is how I finished January's piece for my scrapbook:


Happy Stitching

Jo's February Choice


This is my choice for February.

It's a freebie from Jaunty Fox Designs found here.
Never heard of them?  I'm not surprised, they did this one freebie then vanished!  I couldn't even find out the colour used for that lovely orange background.
I think I'll cheat and stitch it on orange fabric instead!

Happy Stitching
