Advent

 I only worked on three projects during the month of November but did manage 26 finishes!

How does that work out I hear you say.

Well, I completed a sampler, which I will show in my next post and then as we raced through the month I was frantically stitching on my  Madame Chantilly Advent Calendar, which I fully finished just in time for the 1^st December.

In actual fact the little panels were fairly quick to stitch, but it was the finishing that was a little more intensive, especially as I had to repeat the process 25 times.

The chart shows the panels as little pillows but I decided to make mine into flat ornaments, using the fantastic tutorials from ‘The Twisted Stitcher’- Vonna Pheiffer on Floss Tube. 

I finished them with cording made with my Kreinik Custom Cord Maker and added some bling in the form of small shell buttons and tiny diamantes on all the snowflakes.
