Christmas ornaments

Okay, so I've been meaning to post these for weeks.. better late than never, I guess! As most of you who know me IRL already know, I spent much of December making cross-stitched Christmas ornaments. I started off making these ornaments, then I started branching out and designing my own. It got rather addicting, heh ( Read more... )

Two things I love - stitching and fandom - together! This has really cheered up my morning.

Lovely ornaments. I haven't done any cross-stitching in ages but appreciate the work in involved. Are they done on that plastic material or on regular aida cloth? I used to do the latter when I made ornaments and then glued white felt to the back to neaten the ornaments up. :)

Thanks! They're done on plastic mesh. They're actually fairly quick and easy to make, probably moreso than regular cross-stich (which I've never actually done, but it looks more time-consuming!). I also hand-sewed black fabric to the backs of any that I was giving as gifts, because it looks nicer.
