My 5th 2027 Christmas ornament finished

 I finished the stitching on the 5th ornament for 2027.  Yes, it is the same a as the other 4.  I have one more to stitch and then all 6 will be done.  I have had 2 fully finished by The Carolina Stitcher, Faye Riggsbee, and she has 2 to fully finish.  Once I stitch the 6th ornament, I will send the last 2 to her for finishing.  She may not be able to finish this one in the round since I stitched it so close to the bottom of the fabric, but that doesn't matter.  A little variety it nice.


Design & Designer:  My Christmas Song by MTV Designs & part of To All A Good Night by KottedTree NeedleArts
Fabric"  20CT Vintage Country Mocha (unfortunately I stitched them on different sides of the fabric)
Floss:  DMC
1st Stitch:  01/13/2026 - Last Stitch:  02/13/2026
For:  One of my Great Nieces or Great Nephew for Christmas 2027
Notes:  Once I get the 6th ornament stitched I will be sending them to The Carolina Stitcher, Faye Riggsbee to be fully finished.  I have had the other 4 finished into rounds but I don't think she will be able to do this in a round because I stitched My Christmas Song to close to the bottom of the fabric.


I am on Page 11 of 12 on Irises in Monet's Garden.  I am still on track to finish it by the end of May.  A couple of weeks ago CJ saw His Name is Jesus, which I stitched for Barb a couple of years ago, and asked me if I would stitch one for her.  Of course, I said yes.  I started it on my birthday because I wanted to see how she liked the red floss I picked out for it.  She liked it and I have stitched PRI so far.  I don't really plan on steadily working on it until I get Irises fully finished. Yesterday I started Hands On Design's Love Note which is Cathy's 2026 Valentine freebie.
