    Default Personalized Christmas ornaments???

    I would really like to make all of the kids in our family a personalized Christmas ornament....but, I am completely unaware of any pattern or way to do this. Does anyone have an ornament they make that they'd be willing to share? THANK YOU!!!!

    What about miniature personalized (name and year) stockings to hang on the tree?

    I WISH I had an embroidery machine!!! I'm going to probably do something with fusible and "applique". I do really like the stocking w/name and year!!! Thank you! I'm having a mind block or something. I keep seeing a round ball (traditional ornament shape), but that's really not what I want to do...

    Dozens of patterns available. Magic markers do wonders when needing to personalize..

    Make miniature Xmas stocking by using up small pieces of fabric like a string quilt and on the fold down sleeve, write their name and the date of the year.
