I have received some ornaments too but it is too late to take pics just now so they will come later in the week :-)
Today we put up our christmas tree. It looks beautiful, and thankfully the lights still work! Does anyone else get a little nervous when it comes time to test the lights? I do! I think it is because one year I didn't test them until AFTER they were on the tree and it was fully decorated. I went for the grand switch on and.....nothing! OMG was I cross!
Now I test BEFORE they go on the tree, but I still have butterflies.
The kids are off for a few days here and DH is off for the whole week. DH and DS are planning on going fishing tomorrow so I think a stitchy/crafty/bake-y day is on the cards for me and DD.
Stitching and mince pies! Perfect!
I hope you have a great week,

Your ornies are lovely!
Lucky recipients.
The ornaments look wonderful.
I hope the recipients love them.
Your ornies are very pretty. I know the recipients must appreciate them very much. I can't wait to get our christmas tree. Hopefully this weekend. I like getting it as early as possible because growing up my Mom refused to let us put up any decorations until after my birthday, the 10th. I hated it. I want christmas decorations up all year long, lol!!
Lovely stitching and finishing as usual Sadie!
I know what you mean about the lights. They ALWAYS make me nervous even if they are working when we put them on the tree. I'm afraid that they'll short out and cause a fire! I need to be more positive I guess. This morning I was putting up the kitchen tree and only half the lights worked. I went ahead and put them on as it's a small tree and I just added the half that worked! LOL! For all of those reading...I recieved one of the ornaments that dear Sadie made.I have it smack dab in the middle of the front of the tree! Definately a favorite of mine!!
Sadie ~ Your ornaments are all so pretty. I like the Santa one the colors are so great.
Where to you get your SSS? I got some once but have never found them again.
Your stitching is always so inspiring and I enjoy looking at it.
God Bless ~

Your ornaments look great--Holly & Berries is TOTALLY on my wish list!
Have fun with your DD tomorrow; we would love to see some photos of your baking efforts! :D
Your ornaments are lovely! I know exactly what you mean about the Christmas tree lights. Last year we had one set that didn't work about a week after the tree was up! Enjoy your stitchy-crafty-bake-y day. That's something I need to be doing soon.
Ornies are wonderful!
Such darling ornaments...aren't they pretty on a tree?! I love them! And each year I think I must stitch more and then I don't hopefully this coming year I'll stitch MORE!
I love your finished ornaments, Sadie--it must have been hard to give them up!
Christmas lights, oh brother...we had quite a time putting up the lights on our porch garland this weekend. One strand still refuses to work so I'm off to the store today to purchase more :)
Your ornies are beautiful! Especially that PS Santa.
The bookmarks for your Gma are lovely. How sweet of you to do that for her.
I, too, get a little nervous about the lights. Had to replace 2 strands this year before they went on the tree. However, a few days after I had them all up, half of one of the strands quit working. UGH!!! Too late now!
What beautiful ornaments! Great job. :) I love those PS santas--I have visions(delusions) of stitching a ton of them and having a tree with just santas on it. Enjoy your time with the kids!
Have fun putting up your tree, we still need to do that. Your ornaments are great.
All of your ornaments are wonderful, Sadie. Beautiful finishing job's as well.
Happy Stitching ... Sandy In Montana
You ornaments are very nice! I have lots of Prairie Schoolers that I need to do and you have inspired me to get busy!
Nice ornaments, Sadie!
They are lovely!
Your ornaments are great! Do you have a tutorial or can you explain how you finished the first two that are backed by felt? That looks like a quick and easy finishing method I'd like to try. Thanks.
Those ornaments are wonderful. They look just perfect!
Sadie,
The ornaments look great, and I hope the lucky recipients appreciate them!
Hello Sadie as always beautiful! I love the Prairie Schooler Santa and the LHN is really cute too.
Your ornaments are beautiful! Love them all.
Those are beautiful!
Congrats on some great finishes. They are all lovely but the last one is my favorite.
Great job on all the ornies! Reminds me I need to get my newly stitched ones downstairs to get on my tree!
Very nice stitching and finishing!
These are very nice ornies. Love the ones you received to. The will look pretty on the tree
