The fabric for my May ornament is really a very nice Cornflower blue.  Stitching this ornament took my back....  For the Love of CrossStitch was my very first CrossStitch Magazine Subscription. I was preparing for a Garage Sale, and ran across this issue and had to stitch her before I let go of the Magazine.  My ornament SAL is over at Stitching Lotus.  Check out all the great blogs and wonderful completed ornaments.

    Such a lovely ornament. I love the old magazines very much and oftne take them out to look through them again. And I often stitch something out of them.

    Garden Shed is coming on beautifully. I think that had to be my favourite stitch of all time. I enjoyed every minute of mine.

    Nice work! Have many of the old magazines, too. They can be a real treasure trove of projects!

    Your skater ornament looks wonderful on the blue fabric! How nice that you gave your mags one more look before letting them go. I added your Garden Shed pic to the SAL page. It's coming along really good!
