This is the ornament I made our friend Michelle for Christmas.
I stitched this two over two on 32ct lambswool linen. The little bird pattern is a freebie you can find HERE.
The five of us are off shopping today. We are using our gift cards, and hoping to score great deals.
It is snowing! We finally got our first true snow storm this season.
Reading and baking and praying,
Vickie

No stitching for two weeks...sounds like mental torture to me! Let's REALLY hope it has the desired effect:)

Lovely little ornament.

Lovely ornament and cheers for one week down! You can do it second one, I know you can.
A pretty ornament,hope you enjoyed spending your gift vouchers.
Good afternoon, Vickie. Shopping? In the snow? I'm not sure. Hmmm...I went out twice this weekend just to buy some of my favorite yarn that was on sale. It was in the low 30's if that counts. LOL
I'm glad that you're following the doctor's orders. You can do it!!
One more week of no stitching, yeah do shopping therapy:) Take care.
I'm glad you're being good about no stitching. Hope you all found some good deals with the sale shopping! Love the gift for your friend.
Hope you found some bargains. That white crap is heading my way. Be careful!
Hi Vickie,
I hope you had fun together and found yourselves great 'deals' ;)
Hats off, you did it for 1 week already!!!
Havea good day & Dutch waves, Carolien
A lovely little gift for Michelle.
One week without stitching - hard for you but your doctor will be very glad to hear it. And you will certainly feel it in your neck and shoulder when the pain lessens.
No stitching? I'd be crawling up the walls! And spending far too much time online instead.
Hope you have a great shopping trip to take your mind off it all.
Lovely gift for Michelle. I hope you got some bargains on your shopping trip.
I am so sorry for you suffering pain and I really do know how continous pain is sometimes a heavy Croaa to have..but God gives us strength day by day :) You little bir stitching is very cute..With Blessings,Maija from Finland
Oh wow - I'd be going through withdrawal BIG TIME if I couldn't stitch for two weeks. However, take care of yourself so you can et back at it and create all those sweet poodle stitches.

Such lovely stitching Vickie .

Not stitching must be hard, but all for a good reason. That is a sweet ornament you made for Michelle! Hope you found some nice deals! :)
So sorry to hear you're still in pain. I thought you were getting better? Hope you had fun spending your gift cards and got some great goodies! Cute little bird.
You're being so careful, Vickie--I sure hope it helps. I've been having neck pain/stiffness issues the past few days and I have absolutely no idea of why this is happening. Ugh!!
Your little ornament is so sweet--I do love that little bird, too.
Love your Wookie Cookies from your last post! We saw Star Wars last night and, interestingly, I liked it more than the guys! My youngest was so disappointed and said it was just a rehash of the original one! I gave it an 8 :)
Hi Vickie!
I hate that you are not feeling well. I hope that the PT and stretching resolves the issue quickly!
Sweet stitching and finishing. Thanks for the link.
I hope that the shopping was successful!
Happy New Year!
Such a cute ornament. I hope the exercising is helping. DH and I are doing our GC shopping tomorrow. Hope you scored some good deals.
The beautiful gift ! So you have a snow ? We have not... :(
Dear Vicky,
what a lovely ornament. I am so sad to read, that your pain is still not healing.
So more than just words, I wish you healtch for the coming New Year and all the best for you and your family.
Thank you for your wonderful friendship!
