Finished!



I have taken the good advice, and finished this christmas decoration as is. I could not bear to continue. It was reminding me of something from the past...and i wasn't liking it. Its  too
"country craft"...for my liking. I dont know how this happened but I suspect it was a combination of me following directions in a book, inexperience with sewing, and choosing all the traditional materials and colours to sew with. Next batch, I hope I am able to break out of the mould a little, and be a little more interesting (for my own sake!!)

I agree - if your gingerbread men were purple or your stockings in paisley I think they would be more interesting. I love your style on all of your stuffed animals.

Here lime green, turquoise and fuschia are the "in" christmas colors. UGH... So you see, you can do what ever color you choose. What ever makes your heart sing "its beginning to look a lot like christmas". :)
