Ornament Tree decorated for Halloween

I continue to work on page 5 of Bridge in Monet's Garden.  Yesterday I started a new Christmas ornament.  It is LHN Baked Goods.  I hope it stitches up fast as I thing I am going to give it to my Sister as part of her birthday gift in November.  I just love stitching Christmas Ornaments.  I have to figure out what else I am going to stitch for the Greats for Christmas 2012.  There are several in the 2011Just Cross Stitch Ornament issue that I like so maybe that is my solution.

Matty's First Christmas

My niece's son and DIL had a baby boy at the end of July and my sister asked me to make a Christmas ornament for him. Well she actually asked me to make a baby sampler which I told her I wasn't going to do for this round of babies.  So I made a Baby's First Christmas but I changed Baby's to Matty's to personalize it a little bit.  I also added the year to it.

Bridge in Monet's Garden - Page 4

I just finished page 4 of Bridge in Monet's Garden.  Only 31 more to go.  I started page on on 7/19/2011 and completed it on 9/7/2011.  Took a long time but for 2 weeks I was away from home on vacation.  One week at the end of July and another week in August. There were 3780 stitches on page 4.  Yikes why did I figure that out.

Page 4 completed

Halloween Ornament finish

I have another Halloween ornament finish.  I think this is going to be the last one for this year.  I am tired of stitching Halloween ornaments.  I finished stitching Baby's First Christmas, changed to Matty's First Christmas, yesterday.  As soon as I make it into an ornament I will post a picture.

The green is much more vibrant in person than in the picture.  The design may look farmiliar.  I stitched it on a sweatshirt earlier in the year.
