On Saturday I finished my Christmas Ornie from this post.
I am so pleased with how this has turned out and I even had the perfect star button in my stash!
It is called "Home for Christmas" by Gentle Pursuit Designs and is on p. 22 of the JCS Christams Ornament 2014 magazine
I used 28 ct "Flax" Linen and mixed the threads up as I didn't have most of the suggested threads.

Then yesterday, I finished the Travelling Pattern, Lizzie Kate's "Life's a Stitch". You can read all about where this TP has been in this post here.
I am so pleased how this has turned out. This, too, has been stitched on 28 ct Flax Linen and, again, I have mixed up the colours, using threads from my WDW, Crescent Colours and Gentle Arts stash.
Now, as this is a Travelling Pattern, it needs to travel onto someone else.
So, who would like to be the next lucky stitcher of this beautiful piece?
Please comment on this post to let me know,
[Update: If you are interested, can you please specifically say if you would like the TP in your comment ? So that I know who to add to the draw. Thx, Kaye]
It can travel anywhere in the world.

I will keep this open for a week (ie until next Monday, 27th October).
Have a great day everyone,

I looked at this ornie in the magazine and thought it was nice, but now seeing it stitched, it is pretty. Nicely done.
Your hands have been very busy! The ornament is just beautiful and what a cute Life is a Stitch design!
Beautiful stitching! I've stitched Life's a Stitch so please don't enter me for the drawing. Love your color choices. love Annette
Congrats on the adorable finishes Kaye.

Hello Kaye,
Two lovely finishes. Happiness is finding the perfect button or in this case star. It completes the design perfectly.
Happy days.
Bev.
I really like that! It's very, very pretty!
Congrats on the lovely finish !!
Me me me! I've been stalking you! Love your Christmas ornie, it's gorgeous and how lucky that you had the perfect star in your stash?
Beautiful finish
Well done dear xx
Oh lovely stitching Kaye! Life certainly is a stitch :) I'd have loved to be considered but with our postal strike it's best that I not! I'll stalk whoever get's it next and hopefully by then this stupid strike will be over
I plan to stitch that lovely ornament some time myself. =)
I have already done that TP. Yours is wonderful.
Congrats on finishing your ornament--the star is PERFECT for it! Look forward to seeing the finish-finish! Here is that Traveling Pattern AGAIN, to remind me that I already HAVE the pattern and need to just do it already!! Gee! Yours looks great! Hugs!
Your version is just beautiful!
I have already stitch this TP before :)
I love that ornie!! How pretty! I have the magazine and will look it up! You did a great job and I'm looking forward to seeing it finished! I love to have buttons on hand, and it really is exciting when you find the perfect one!
It was a great weekend:-)
Too much love embroidery!
Home for Christmas was a success !!!
Lovely finish from the magazine and the TP too.
I have also stitched this TP (I made it in Christmas colours) so I will pass.
I would love for the TP to come to Indiana! It would be a great stitch and I have not owned it or stitched and would love to stitch it.
THanks for the chance for the TP tom come to Indiana.

So nice to have two finishes during one weekend. And they look so great.
Beautiful stitching! Congrats on the two finishes :D Can't wait to see who gets the TP next!
Beautiful stitching there Kaye - love the colours in the TP. I just stitched a different TP, so don't count me in the draw...
Love the ornament you stitched from this year's mag.
Your travelling pattern piece is gorgeous. Please don't include me as it had already visited me :)
