Christmas 2023 Ornament Swap

This year I again participated in a Christmas ornament swap and again thoroughly enjoyed it.  My swap partner sent me this adorable ornament and it looks like a cute granpup I have.



I sent this one and the pattern is one I found on Pinterest.  I am not use to stitching on dark fabric but done ok.  no frogging needed so was pleased.




This year i have a plan on doing more stitching, so watch this space.

A Cross Stich Swap

 Last year I participated in  my first swap for a long time and it was held here within New Zealand.  The swap was a cross stitch Christmas ornament swap and below is what I received from my partner.  The tin of shortbread was so yummy.



This is what I sent to my partner.  I have not cross stitched for so long and this sort of got my mojo back slightly and hubby even bought me a kit for Christmas as he had seen me to this one
