Christmas stitches (already??!)

I’ve been working on a few ornaments these days, and I’m happy to say I’m almost done with the stitching part on all of them.. as for the finishing, my excuse is I’ve run out of filling, and I can’t go on until I come home from Tuscany with a new supply (lame excuse, I know)

anyways, this means I’ll finally get to start one of the most interesting projects of all summer.. I’ve been stashing for this lately, and spent yesterday morning measuring, checking, double checking, triple checking, cutting, sewing, .. and now I have everything kitted up for this Christmas project

now I won’t tell you what it’s going to look like once finished (or should I say they are finished), but I assure you the picture I have in mind is a really really cool one.. 😀

I’ll also add The Shop Around The Corner‘s Waiting for Christmas SAL to the project, as it fits perfectly (at least I’ll make it fit.. ;)) ..btw entries are still open 🙂

these are pics from the last Lizzie Kate freebies I finished, stitched on V&H polka dotted bands using the called for GAST and WDW threads, JABC buttons and LK’s charm pack

it’s thundery here in north-east Italy (bad weather is to blame for these dark pictures) and I’m planning to work with those lovely silks you saw up above, and since I know many of you will enjoy a long weekend (happy Memorial day Yankees! ;)) I have a suggestion movie wise speaking, The Perfect Host (2010) with an amazing David Hyde Pierce (can you believe I used to watch Frasier as a kid?! :))
