Lizzie*Kate Christmas Blessings, 'Hope' and 'Friends' stitched on 32 ct mushroom Lugana with my own selection of hand-dyed threads. I used Gentle Art Liberty, Sarsaparilla, Geranium and Picket Fence; Olde Willow Stitchery Cucumber, and Weeks Dye Works Juniper and Blue Spruce.
There is a border pattern out on Lizzie*Kate's site to stitch all the Christmas Blessings on one piece of fabric. It looks really nice and I may stitch these again in that format. I have 'Love' to do then I'm done with the first three and I'll put them in a drawer until I have all of them ready for finishing into ornaments.
I'm loving these :)

These are so pretty, Ash! And they look like they would be nice and quick to stitch. Why do I always get bogged down in designs that use half stitches and a variety of colours that keep me changing threads every two minutes? Blahh..
Thanks for the great recipes. I am an expat stay at home mum currently living in Manila but home is Australia. Love your stitching, especially the blue alphabt. Really like the fabric you use and the thread colours. Great blog. Will come and read your blog again. Happy Stitching
