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.
