My first finish is for one of the Winter Challenges with the members of Needlecraft Haven. Each season we have a Christmas Challenge and a Seasonal Challenge. I can't share my Seasonal Challenge but this is the Christmas one, a freebie from Gazette 94.
The design was a bigger sampler and I chose to stitch just part of it. I think these Santas are so cute.
My second finish is for Jo's Facebook SAL for the Just Cross Stitch Ornament Magazine 2020. The design for February was Santa Claus by Autumn Lane Stitchery.
I like to use a frame again and again, especially by swapping designs throughout the year. I have Jardin Prive's seasonal trees that I change in the same frame every change of season.
I have a lovely frame with a Love design in but it only comes out on show in February. My Santa Claus fits perfectly so will be a swap for my frame and it will be seen in December now too.
I didn't finish my Santa Claus as an ornament as Justine stitched it for me for the Needlecraft Haven Christmas Exchange, isn't it lovely!
My final two finishes are for both Jo's Facebook 12 Days of Christmas SAL, and Needlecraft Haven's 12 Days SAL. The first is Jardin Prive's design, the white doves do not show in the photo but they do in real life. My other design is from Plum Street Samplers, I had many frog visits with this one but it has turned out ok.
I have two other finishes, they are upcycled birthday cards. You can read about them in my previous post here.
Thank you Rachel for hosting another super FFO month.
Great idea to swap the frames out, it saves on storage space too ;-)
