  1. Penny!! Looks like she's grown in just a week. :-) I look forward to this post from you as I love to see all the gorgeous treasures and shh, but I get a few ideas from the beautiful stitching. The ornaments are all so lovely! On the TSU Santa, do you know how the fur was done? It's awesome!

    1. Thanks! That fur is uncut turkey work. Still debating whether to trim it or not.

  3. I love your blog and follow it daily, but I must say (and I'm probably speaking for all your readers) that I look forward to your annual Xmas party the most. What a wonderful group of friends and stitchers you have. All the ornaments are so beautiful and the memories y'all share so special. Please post as many details as you can. Merry Xmas to you and all the SWANS.

    1. It's a wonderful tradition. We drew names for next year. I have the piece in mind for the Swan I selected. I think I will order it right now. Merry Christmas to you!
