Well, I didn't mean to take that long of a break.
The days get away from me so quickly lately.
Today is my Mother's birthday.
It's hard to believe she has been gone almost six years.
I know we are way past Christmas but here are the last of the ornaments I fully finished for this year.

Got my cording tied just slightly off center.
I still have a few of these printed ornaments to do. I kind of like mixing them in for something different now and then.
I sew a piece of batting to the back before I do the embroidery, then I put a piece of felt on the back and blanket stitch it together.
I don't know when I originally stitched this one but I was never happy with my finish.
It doesn't look that bad in the picture but it was badly stuffed.
Every year when I pull it out I tell myself I need to re finish it and this year I did!

And of course I can't post without a picture or two of baby girl.
She had her first milkshake a few weeks ago.
She loves to play outside!
She's coming for a visit in a couple of weeks so Pa says we need to get her a slide for here.
Hope to not take so long between posts this time.
