Ho Ho Ho Happy Dance
I finished another piece a couple of days ago. This is the 2007 limited edition Christmas kit from Lizzie Kate. It was a really fun and fairly quick stitch. I think I’m going to finish it into either a pillow or I may take a shot at making it into a flat fold. I’ve never done the flat fold finishing technique, so it would be something new for me.
Designer: Lizzie Kate
Fabric: Light mocha cashel linen
Fibers: Crescent Colors cotton floss & DMC cotton floss
Extras: Kreinik 032 blending filament for snow (not called for in the kit)
I’ve also joined a SAL on one of my Yahoo groups. We’re all working on Gingerbread Cottage by Country Cottage Needleworks. It’s a really cute piece and I’m hoping to get it done in time to finish it as a pillow for Christmas. Here’s my first progress photo taken yesterday at the end of my first day of stitching on it:
Designer: Country Cottage Needleworks
Fabric: Unknown hand-dyed linen from a grab bag of fabric
Fibers: Crescent Colors cotton floss and DMC cotton floss
That’s it for now. I’m off to do some more stitching. 
Happy stitching!

Your Ho Ho Ho came out great and I think a flat fold finish would be wonderful for it. It’s not that hard. The little Gingerbread Cottage is one of my very favorites from the Christmas designs just out. Happy Stitching
