A Couple of Exchanges to Share

My Fair and Square - Winter round has finally been received by my partner Dani. She's been away on deployment and only recently returned home, it looks as though she had a few exchanges waiting for her return which would have been lovely to come home to - well, for me anyway.

Italian Ice
Just Nan (freebie)
32# Dirty linen with DMC threads and snowflake charm


Sharon has also received her ornie for the ASOE - Spring round. I really enjoyed stitching this one, it was fun to play around with a design to make it fit the size I wanted - I think I need to get out more... ; ) I wish there were more options for hangers though, I can only think of three - cord, ribbon or beaded, not that there's anything wrong with those, it's just that sometimes I'd like to do something a little different.

Spring
Helga Mandl - GOS April 2008
32# Light Mocha Belfast with DMC threads
Adaptation of original design to fit required size

Hello Spring
Lizzie Kate (freebie)

Hoping you all have a stitchy day :)
