I also joined a stitch called Torah Stitch by Stitch. Each stitcher signs up and is sent a section of the Torah to stitch. This is my contribution. Genesis 16 Verse 15-17. It has been sent back to the group to be added to their work.They are now at 420 stitchers from 12 countries. If you are interested you can find more information here.
And, because we winter in Arizona we had an early Christmas with my parents, our children and grandchildren. The tree was up and the house was decorated for Christmas. All of my nutcrackers made an appearance. I am only putting a photo of a very few. I think last count was 200 or so. I had such fun. The grandkids were a little confused but very happy with their early Christmas gifts.
Of the gifts I received this was, by far, the best gift ever.
A Jim Shore Nutcracker. Isn't he a handsome fella! and he is all mine!
I have tried to do a fair amount of stitching in the last 6 months. This is my ort jar after that time frame. Either I stitched a lot or I made lots of errors. You chose lol.
The Game board and Torah stitching are just lovely!!! What a super nutcracker!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour section of the Torah is looking great. I have to admit, I've set mine aside for a little while since I'm trying to get a few other things done first. I'll make my deadline, though.
ReplyDeleteI love the Christmas tree so much. I have to admit, I'm very excited for Christmas this year. I love Halloween, but I can't wait for Christmas!
