February - two more ornaments

I'm managing to do some stitching with the meds but simple charts as I have to keep rereading and doing one step at a time. Hopefully they will be out my system soon as I have a couple of charts I want to start.

I have finished two more ornaments for my church tree, I cut out a little more on these and added some Dove's Eyes. I'll be making another two of these and three of the other one before looking through my charts for another small design.

Thank you everyone who has pledged an ornament, I'll be putting a list of where they are all from up at church by my tree.

Ornaments 2 & 3
I have completed my two Temperature Quilts to the end of January, we haven't had any heavy snow but some ice and a few flurries. On those days I've added a silver cross. I wonder if February will have any more silver to add.

It's exchange time at Needlecraft Haven. For Valentine's Day we're having a friendship exchange, we needed to stitch a card and include a skein of thread and a sweet treat in our parcel. Mine's currently with Postie so fingers crossed my partner receives it soon, I'll share the photos later this month.

My final photo is my Drawn Thread February chart. This is the first time it's been in the frame after I changed the set from box finishes to changeable frameable finishes. It fits perfectly, the frame has suited all the months which I'm very pleased about.

February- The Drawn Thread

I hope you had a very crafty January and your fingers are busy this month too.

Glad you managed to get some stitching done despite the meds. The hardanger pieces will look lovely on a Christmas tree.

Two more lovely ornaments and great work on the Temperature SAL. It's a nice project if you can't concentrate too much.

Two more beautiful ornaments, how many more do you plan on making?
Both temps quilts look pretty in their different shades of blue.
February looks lovely in the frame, I like how you're changing it.
