All through December, I was stitching in the evenings on the Dropcloth Gingerbread Houses Holiday Ornaments Project. I kind of knew early on that I probably wouldn't have them finished in time to make ornaments for Christmas 2023, and I was ok with that.
But finally, I have all four of the gingerbread houses stitched!
I stitched with a double-thickness of Aurifil 12wt in a mix of colors I chose at the start, and kept 'organized' in my small Split Pouch.
With the new year starting and all, I'm going to tuck the finished houses away for now, and decide exactly what to do with them later. I'm leaving the 'bases' of the houses blank, so I can personalize them or whatever when I finish the project. But they were enjoyable to stitch throughout the season, that's for sure.
So fun to see your thread selection in your split pouch. These look like the perfect December evening / winter evening stitching project, and I'm sure you'll come up with a great use for them for the next holiday season.
ReplyDeleteGreat embroidery and colors! Who doesn't like gingerbread houses? the double thickness of 12 wt. works well.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a lot of stitching on those little houses! They are each so unique and fun. I may have to make a split pouch; they look so handy!
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable, Debbie! Just so very cute! Love all the details in them.
