I bought a unfinished mini wooden coffin at Michaels and painted it up for Mr. Bones resting place. I thought it added just the right touch!

Stitched on white perforated paper by Mill Hill
I heard from my partner that she loved it! What I really like about participating in exchanges is pushing myself to come up with something different than the standard ornament to make it special and unexpected for my partner. This was a lot of fun. I have to credit my DD because she was the one to persuade me to stitch Mr. Bones.

Isn't he a fun stitch?!? I stitched him as soon as that ornament issue came out but never have "finished" him yet... I love your finished package, coffin & all!
What a great exchange, I'm sure your partner was absolutely thrilled (and a bit spooked!) when she opened it!

A very unique exchange gift to receive. A brilliant idea that would have been wonderful to unwrap and discover. Well done!
