dancing away the weekend...

Happy Valentine's day!

First of all I have to apologize to Barbi, as I didn't even touch Molly this weekend, so zero progress. However I do have a good reason!

Originally I wasn't planning on doing any Valentine stitching this year, as I really didn't have time, but at the last minute I changed my mind and all this week, including today, I was busy stitching up a storm and finishing them into little ornaments, as Valentine gifts for my family. Here is what I was working on this week:

All of them are freebie designs, I found while surfing the net...

This is the entire design, I wanted to make it into a pinkeep but ran out of time. It will be a Valentine gift for my hubby, so he can help finish it off later. :O) At least the stitching is all done in time!

I then took the center portion and made a small ornament out of it.

All of these were stitched on 28ct fabric. The iStitch Love and the friendship heart on ivory/offwhite jazlynn I think, and the rest on ivory joblean, and all stitched with DMC 815. It took roughly 3 skiens to do all of it including the cording, which I also made.
