Last Finish For 2019

I've been working on this little ornament for a few days and I just now finished it.  It was suppose to be an ornament for the tree but I decided to keep it out all year.  My hubby and I both love hot cocoa and we have a Keurig with all kinds of hot cocoa mixes and different flavored syrups to add to them so I decided to hang this little guy with all the goodies.  


I hope each and every one of you has a safe and happy new year.  I love all my followers and I wish nothing but the best for 2020. 

Blessings Upon All of You,
Barbara

Hoping Everyone Had A Merry Christmas

Well we didn't have a white Christmas but we did have a wonderful one.  Getting up at 6 am so we're over at Peytons and Johns when the kids wake up was a bugger but worth it.  We all got surprises and I think that makes it a lot more fun.  Mine was an Eeyore charm for my Disney Pandora bracelet.  He's one of my favorite characters.  The kids were just so darn cute opening their packages from Santa and just like that......it's over.  Hubby and I went home for a much needed nap and then we were back over there for dinner.  John has gotten a smoker and he wanted to try making a smoked meatloaf and it was delicious!  

Here's our little cuties with Santa....


Hope your Christmas was just as merry!

Blessings, Barbara

Ta Da

I was able to finish the SAL today but I did make one change.  Up at the top where it says "Merry Christmas" the designer had more musical notes.  Now being the dummy that I am, I have no idea how to read music and never did so I'm not sure if the designer had a real song in there or not but I just wanted Merry Christmas on it somewhere.  
I thoroughly enjoyed stitching with the Sulky 12 weight thread and if you get a chance I do recommend trying it.  It worked up really nice on the 28 ct Jobelan I used.


Unto the next......

Blessings, Barbara

PS.  Thanks to Vickie for letting me know that the notes play out the song "O Christmas Tree".  Now I'm sorry that I did substitute Merry Christmas so large up top and didn't leave the notes.  I could always take out the stitching.....hmmmm....don't think so.
