I'd be absolutely certain of cutting the wrong thread or too many threads or whatever. They are so gorgeous. But I am really completely enamored of the felt Christmas ornaments. I may have to try those myself. I do have a question about your cross stitching style. Do you do an entire area in the half cross stitch, intending to go back later and complete the stitches? Is this easier to manage? When I've done cross stitch, I generally don't do half cross stitches over more than a row of the color I'm working before I go back, crossing them. I've wondered whether these various methods of getting the job done really matter in terms of the aappearance of the front. Sometimes I think they do; other time I think not. Opinions? Also, I'm certain you will work in another piece of your gingerbread village should one become available! You can probably knock that out in a weekend some time. <3 <3 <3Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03065545905446900355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6516557859503396142.post-49586580510038334772017-02-13T01:16:08.237+13:002017-02-13T01:16:08.237+13:00Oh you have some gorgeous projects planned - I lov...Oh you have some gorgeous projects planned - I love the colours in the Christmas decorations - I shall have to check them out for myself :)Carie @ Space for the Butterflieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13060566680311122115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6516557859503396142.post-80707696926738659842017-02-12T05:15:32.484+13:002017-02-12T05:15:32.484+13:00You have a good variety of work on your list.

I like the look of Holey Moley. Choosing felt and thread combinations for those Christmas decorations takes a lot of time - sometimes I replace the french knots with tiny seed beads on some of the decorations.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07999097330359965266noreply@blogger.com
