Christmas exchange and plans for 2014

Hi Everyone,
Last month I participated in a Christmas exchange. My partner was Dawn. I read on her blog that she liked cardinals, so I searched through my older Just Cross Stitch Ornament issues, and found this one in the 2008 issue.

Here's the back...




















Here is the package I sent. I'm so delighted that Dawn liked everything.












My partner was Kay. She stitched me this beautiful Blackbird Designs Stocking.


















She also included some lovely extras. This was such a treat. 










The weather has been rain and ice for the past week, so I took advantage of that and started to clean up some of my stitching areas. I have found a few more duplicates, as well as some treasures that I had forgotten about. I thought that I would put together some new starts as this year  I joined Mel's Stitching from Stash 2014. Hopefully this challenge will help me sort through my stash before this summer when we plan to renovate another room, and I will have to box up some supplies.






Cath received my  giveaway package - so now I can share  the lovely fob that I included.
