the creator can post the pic if the want to...it's a suprise who it's going to so even if the person sees it on here they don't what they will be getting......and the person you send to isn't the person you will recieve from....everybody will stick a note in when they mail it to let the person know who they are :)

well I made an angel that I am considering for the ornament swap. My husband thinks it may be to big to be considered an "ornament". This is my first time so any advice is greatly appreciated. Here is a picture of it next to a regular size coffee mug, any opinions?
Veronica

Veronica[what a pretty name],, do send your angel, anyone would love to receive her... molly

ScrapQuilter 09-23-2010 07:22 PM

very cute - don't know why you wouldn't send her........

sewnsewer2 09-23-2010 08:19 PM

Brenda21, is a machine embroidered ornament considered hand made?

rummage 09-23-2010 10:49 PM

:thumbup: Veronica,
Your angel is lovely, can't see any reason at all why you shouldn't send her. I reckon anyone would be proud to hang her on their tree, I know I would :-D

Ok I'm in, I sent my pm.

brenda21 09-24-2010 03:36 PM

gotcha sewhappy30 :)

This is going to be so much fun to see all the wonderful ornaments. It's already putting me in the christmas mood. The angel is so cute. doesn't look to big to me. I have all kinds of handmade ornaments on my trees. some from my kids. 30 and more years old. If someone thinks it is too big it could be a tree topper or just set it out for decor. Mary

moonrise 09-25-2010 03:09 AM

Okay. You twisted my arm. ;) Go ahead and put me down for 2 ornies. I'll send a PM shortly. :)

lauriejo 09-25-2010 06:48 AM

Now this is the size of project I can handle. I usually make ornaments for family every year so two extra won't be a problem. I'm sending a PM!

brenda21 09-25-2010 07:04 AM

Moonrise and Lauriejo
Got you both down...glad you're joining us...it will be fun :)

sewnsewer2 09-25-2010 09:05 AM

I have a question..do we send 2 to the same person or do we get 2 partners if we signed up for making 2? I think I missed that part :oops:

brenda21 09-25-2010 09:09 AM

Dawn,
I will send you the addresses of the people that you send to...two different people...they will not be the same two people that send back to you...you put a note in with your ornament so they will know who it's from...secret until they receive it :)

moonrise 09-26-2010 01:34 AM

Ornies are made and ready to mail whenever! That made a good little project to do while DH was out doing some errands earlier. :)

lauriejo 09-26-2010 02:39 AM

Moonrise you are fast! I guess I should quit reading and start making!

jacquie 09-26-2010 06:38 AM

lauriejo, looking at your profle pic, i think you need to go get another cuppa coffee hun!! lol...

lauriejo 09-26-2010 07:25 AM

Jacquie that profile pic was sent to me by my son, he knows his mom very well LOL. Although I can only have one cup of coffee a day, then I have to switch to alternate caffeine sources (Pepsi Yay!)

sewnsewer2 09-26-2010 11:58 AM

Well, I am working on the ornies. I have 2 almost done. :)

MISHNJIM 09-26-2010 03:13 PM
