I like the third one on the bottom row from the left.<br /><br />Your "Noel" is beautiful! Love the creative idea of heart shaped smoke. :) And the color combination is very nice too. Well done on the finished also. Your February ornament is adorable, Carol! Cute pattern for your March ornament! And cute finished too. The black fabric you've chose is so well match with the bright burgundy ribbon.<br /><br />Summer splendor is beautiful and I just can't wait to see the progress; so hurry to get all the threads. :) <br /><br />Happy stitching!Vinnieyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683126664274880945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293399242092873784.post-29269863812865340422012-03-10T18:34:06.482-05:002012-03-10T18:34:06.482-05:00Agreed to all!

Time is passing by and was thinking just the other day, how I need to find some "time" to get out some ornies for gifts this year. Is that going to happen? I do not know. <br />Vonna indeed is a wonderful stitcher and she too is so kind to post her tutorials for others to finish their goods. What a treasure box she creates. <br />I see you are moving on with Summer Splendor; that should be a fun stitch.<br />What a cute surprise of chocolates too.<br />and finally, yes! I do remember as a youth wanting time to pass quickly, and yes, now I want it to slow down. Must be part of our life cycle.<br />This year I've been slowing me and things down mentally and by circumstance...doing more enjoying the process of stitching and creating.<br />Thank you so very much as it is always a joy to come and read.<br />Blessings.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18387913442305007906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293399242092873784.post-26902026781487302072012-03-06T12:21:07.665-05:002012-03-06T12:21:07.665-05:00Sorry I'm a bit late but I did want to comment...Sorry I'm a bit late but I did want to comment on this post. :)<br /><br />Love all of your ornaments and your finishing of them. Looking at the chart, I agree the reindeer looks better as you have stitched it.<br /><br />I don't know how time seem to go faster.

I loved seeing your beautiful 'freebie' finishes, and appreciate your sharing the links to those websites too.<br /><br />I share in your feelings about life fleeting so slowly in our youth, but in adulthood, time seems to whiz by, doesn't it? I can remember when my children were small, and I used to wish that I could just keep them "little" for a while longer. It is so true that as we get older, we seem to appreciate the simpler things of life, and be glad for each new day and what it adds to our lives.Kathy Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10098056934345001536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293399242092873784.post-64935320449973800342012-03-04T10:13:56.641-05:002012-03-04T10:13:56.641-05:00I wish I was disciplined enough to commit to an or...I wish I was disciplined enough to commit to an ornament a month.

I love how you finished it and the Noel one, so pretty! I really like the colors of the Noel one, and the heart shaped smoke :) Sweet!<br /><br />Oh my goodness, the chocolates look divine! I bet it was hard to eat the first one, huh? I've never seen such pretty chocolate!<br /><br /><br />Can't wait to see what else you're stitching in March. Did you find any cute smalls for St. Patty's? I know there's a couple at the Rainbow Gallery website. There's also one there called Summer Fun that I can just picture in your wooden bowl ;) Just look at that little ant!<br /><br />Have a nice weekend,<br />Donna in WV<br />catsandbeetles@hughes.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293399242092873784.post-82967724047802471972012-03-02T16:23:00.532-05:002012-03-02T16:23:00.532-05:00Your ornaments are stitched beautifully and the fi...Your ornaments are stitched beautifully and the finishes are perfect!

I've advised fellow bloggers to just turn it off and disable the Anonymous posts option.<br /><br />Very lovely ornaments you made. They all turned out darling. <br /><br />Your husband did good with the chocolates. My honey knows to buy me flowers to get back in my good graces.... sometimes. :) <br /><br />The quote from that movie is so true. I'm 28 but I can still remember as a child wishing to grow up fast. Now I wish I could go back and do some of it over.
