Christmas Stitching

Hello Stitchers and Friends!

With the Christmas season quickly approaching, I have been busy stitching up some ornaments. I have suddenly fallen in love with Prairie Schooler designs. Unfortunately a lot of the designs I am in love with are out of print. But, Lucky for me, a long time ago a dear stitching friend sent me this beautiful little santa design and I have saved it all these years. I have finally pulled it out and have finally stitched it up!

I came across another beautiful design by The Cricket Collection...
this is a freebie on their site, and can be found if you click here:

I like the way this one quickly worked up and I think it came out pretty!

I will be baking cookies today and hopefully getting some of my Christmas cards out in the mail. Our daughter has been asking me to make my famous "Orange Peel Christmas Cookies". They are ooooh sooo good, and OOhhhh soooo much work! But I will make them soon, it is a tradition in our house every Christmas time!

Thinking of you all ,
with Raggedy Stitches,
Louise
