This time I've actually been very productive!
I used the same frame that I made for September, although now I see the fabric really needs to be ironed. Oops!
I stitched these three Mill Hill ornaments as Models for the shop. These are the ones Amy picked out.
The Snowman ornament from Mill Hill.
I chose to omit the beads on the edge and used a candy cane S hook to hang it with.
The Christmas Tree from Mill Hill.
This one was stitched as shown.
Ugly Sweater from Mill Hill.
The only thing I changed was using a red bead that I already had.
This is my favourite!
Fall Fun from Mill Hill - altered to fit Amy's New Cross Stitch Shop - Born to Stitch!
More on her shop on the next post.
Be sure to check out what others have finished, I plan to look this week!

Adorable ornaments! I sent that FFO bug your way๐
Lovely finishes Astrid. I like your use of the candy cane as a hook for the ornament. I have some S shaped hooks that I hadn't thought of using like that. I must remember this idea. Thank you.
Lovely finishes, I've been using a product called Crease Release for my pre stitched fabrics, it even gets fold marks out. I haven't tried on a stitched project yet as I'm concerned about colour fasting
Congratulations on the shop opening Amy, I wish you much success.
Astrid: lovely ornaments, I like Mill Hill designs. Your November header design is so sweet.

Fun projects, all. I think my favourite is the cute little reindeer (nothing ugly about him at all!).
Love your Mill Hills and Born to Shop is perfect for a stitcher.
