Cheesehead I love your stars.

He looks really fun jclinganrey

I saw some really cute angel ornaments on Craftsy and I am going to experiment with Dresden stars and Cathedral Windows. Hopefully something jumps out at me - or I will just ask my mom!

This is not the ornament I was asking about (of course), but
it is one that I am working on.

Still need to add a lot of embellishments to it etc...

Very nice Quilty-Louise.

NZquilter, the first year I was in the swap I was gifted a wine cork reindeer. They are really cute.

Thank you!

Beautiful!!! I saw the ribbon stars posted on Pinterest and am trying to figure out how to make them with fabric strips. Tons of starch most likely or maybe a fusible interfacing???

i'm making another one too

I started one yesterday too. It is pretty cute and done from a free pattern on bhg site.

Hi, I've just 'pm'd' to join the swap... my ornament is made!!!

Looking forward to the swap!! There are some great pictures being shared!! Love it!!

Hugs all!! Jacquie xxx

Welcome Jacquie.

Red, those ornaments are darling! My favorite is the Schnauzer.

Jan

Love both!!!!

I love the bird. I've been looking for new ideas.

That bird is so cute!! I love the embroidery on it.

Hi Red, I don't mind at all. I would encourage everyone to share ornaments you find with the group.

I was going to hold off until the swap closed to begin posting pictures, but maybe I will have to take some time this weekend and get things organized and begin posting fun ideas for everyone.

Red...I love the little "Let It Snow" dog.

I cannot believe you already have snow. Even here in MN we haven't seen the white stuff yet, and hopefully we won't for awhile yet.

I love the bird and bell ornament. I am posting some of pics of hand made felt ornaments I made last year as samples when I taught some of our small community Hall Craft group Christmas Ornaments. I just collected pictures from the internet and then made my own patterns. Hand stitching these ornaments is very relaxing.

Betty! These ornaments are just lovely!!! I love them all!!!
Thank you for sharing them with us!! I will definitely keep them in mind for further years!!
Hugs and happy sewing! Jacquie xxx

Wow Betty! Each and every one of those ornaments are so pretty. I would find a front and center spot to show them off on my tree!

Jan

Those are great! I just finished making mine so ready to mail. I love felt ornaments though and I might make some if I can crawl out from under everything.Starting a Hunter's Star quilt so we will see.

I'm home alone this year. Not sure about a tree but may use white branches for hand made ornaments in my studio.

Check your PM's, I sent you one last week (or before)
as we are assigned partners in the Oct. postcard swap.

Oh my Betty! Those are so wonderful.

Betty, those are great ornaments. Thank you so much for sharing.

In getting in the spirit of the season I am going to post one ornament pattern a day, with instructions, to give everyone some inspiration until the signup closes.

I basically made my own patterns but here is the link to my pinterest folder that I have lots of pictures of decorations saved. There are quite a few with pattern links.

Here is a link to a Santa ornament, I have made this one from this pattern but I would prefer to enlarge it as it is quite small.

Picture of the Santa ornament I made also a felt beaded angel and a round felt ornament, I received one like this from an ornament swap and liked it so much I decided to make one like it.

i made these ornaments bigger for napkins.. you start out with a half circle.

I just sent pm

For my family's Christmas tree I made a cute little snowman out of an old sock. It's darling! I'm on the hunt now through DH's socks to find more "holey" socks to make a snowman family!

NZquilter, that sounds really cute. we would love pictures.

Those ornaments are so cute. Thank you.

I would love to be included in this swap. This will be my first time for this swap. Thanks!!!!!


I love unique snowmen, gingerbread people, and toy soldiers. Smowmen are my favorite.
Can't do international at this time.

I am not sure it is a good idea to put all of your information out on the web snownannie.

snowannie to send a private message to Anoka, click on her name, then private message and hey presto...send her a message. When she answers there will be a notification at the top of the page when you log in.
