🌟Merry Christmas!🌟

Merry Christmas to my fellow Orthodox Christian friends!
Do you like the pink lights?! They are brand new this year and I love them!💗💗💗 The angel is 23 years old. I made her and two others like her, for my mom and MIL. The ornaments you see are mostly Madeleine's and Emerson's. Jacob's are at his apartment now. I fill in the remaining spaces with "ours".

This is the gift I stitched for Brian.
This is stitched one over one with DMC B5200 on mystery green 28ct linen. I finished this tree in the same way our friend Woody does. She has made many, many trees and she gave me a few helpful tips! This will not be my last tree! Thank you Woody!🎄

Thank you for stopping by today my friends! I am so glad you did! I hope you have a wonderful, stitchtastic week!

"But I will sing of Your strength, in the morning I will sing of Your love; for You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble." -Psalm 59:16

Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Dear Vickie, bravo ���� you made a very nice tree. Hope your husband was glad for your present. Wish you to do lots of trees like this. I’m finishing one that soon I’ll post on my blog. Bye bye

Merry Christmas to you, Vickie! Your pink lights are so "you!" I'm sure they shed a very pretty glow at night time... I'm impressed with your tree finish--that looks a bit tricky to me, but yours turned out great. Enjoy your day ♥

A pink tree, of course! I like ours with rainbow lights; gotta have color everywhere! Brian's ornament turned out great. That pattern makes a very lovely tree.
