This year for my mom I made:
Santa and Rudolph by Water's Edge Designs
2007 JCS Ornament Issue
Fabric: 32 ct. ???
Fibre's: DMC as charted
Embellishments: pompoms, bell, twisted cord, ribbon
Finished as a flat ornament
I already have a few to choose from to stitch her for next Christmas. While she was looking through my JCS ornament issues she pointed out a lot she likes, all with a gajillion colours :) like charts by Serendipity Designs or The Vermillion Stitchery. Not something you start the month before Christmas.
Here is what I made for my stepdad this year:

Fibres: as charted except red, used WDW Turkish Red
Embellishments: Mill Hill Petite Seed Beads, pompom, ribbon, pins
Finished as a pinkeep ornament
I'll leave you a photo of Pumpkin enjoying Christmas morning with us:

What a beautiful ornament you made for your mom !!

Very cute....I know they loved them!
Happy new year....
That is such a nice stitching tradition--I've always meant to do that for my sons, but never have. Maybe next year. Both ornaments are so cute--I love the little bell and pompom nose on the reindeer!
Wishing you and your family (and your darling Pumpkin) a very happy and healthy 2011!
That's a great tradition and great gift. :)
I always say I'm going to stitch ornaments...sometimes I make it and some years I don't. Yours look great!
Your ornaments are gorgeous! I'm going to start mine a lot earlier for next Christmas, like in January! I only got one stitched this year and that didn't get "finished" into an ornament.
I love your ornament. Theu are so beautiful.
Have a great 2011, starting this evening.
Lovely ornies! What a neat tradition!

Happy new year!
What a beautiful tradition for your family. Hope you had a Merry Christmas and happy New Year
I love your reindeer ornaments, and I really love your Pumpkin, LOL - I think marmies are The Best ;) My fat marmie completely agrees, lol.
I plan on doing all 3 of Sharon (Daffycat)'s reindeer this year - I just love her patterns, and really, can you ever have too many reindeer? I think NOT! ;)
Beautiful ornaments and what a wonderful tradition to start.
Happy New Year!
