So this is Christmas!!!

I'm normally not into Christmas that early but, just like last year, I signed up for the Holiday Ornament Swap organised by Freshly Blended and Cake and Pie. Believe it or not but I started to think about my ornament prototype back in August! I could have modified the ornament that I made last year but why make something simple when you can make it complicated ;) Here is a little sneak preview at one of the 8-9 ornaments that I will send around the globe! Sign-ups run from November 1st through November 10th. Go ahead...it's fun!

Hi Claudia!! I signed up again this year too! I have an idea for my decoration too but haven't started yet!!

It's funny, I used to be in to cross stitch a lot and then I started knitting. But I was cross stitching this week too!! And Christmas pictures at that!

I was just thinking about your ornaments from last year and wondering if i'd do this swap again, this post just convinced me to go for it! Now this year I need to think of something other than creepy doll faces to send to people!

LOL - I decided that since I "discovered" you and your blog last year as a result of your efforts on this swap, the least I could do was sign up this year! FUN! Now, I've signed up, and I just have to figure out what to do!! Thanks for the inspiration . . .

Hi Claudia! I am a little jealous of your crazy cross stitching skills. ;)
Love your tights too!

it's funny how little things like an ornament swap makes you happy dreaming up christmas months in advance.
