Cute 2009 Ornament


Isn't this cute?  I have to admit that on my first lap through the JCS 2009 Ornament magazine I skipped right by this, but have since been drawn to the simplicity of the design, the warming colors, and the peace message.

This is Linda's finished piece.  I'm going to put this little project on my 2010 to do list.  I had never seen the metal frames before, but the rustic simplicity sets off the piece nicely.  Linda - the wonder woman of stitching - had three pieces framed out in metal to show last night.  I think two of them were pins.  I don't remember whether this one was a pin or not, but that would be a really cute idea.  She said that she used the colors on the chart.

  2. Linda - Did you buy the kit or did you get this pin frame separately? Thanks. The pin idea is really cute.

  3. FRAME ORDERED SEPARATELY-CAN BE ORDERED THRU YOUR LOCAL SHOP. ONE OF THE GIRLS I WORK WITH HUSBAND IS A SHEET METAL WORKER. HE, WHEN HE IS WORKING THE SHOP WILL TRY TO MAKE ONE AND SEE IF WE LIKE. IT MAY BE SHINY BUT WE'LL FIND A WAY TO ANTIQUE IT I'M SURE. LZ
