It's a bit early for Christmas stuff in our household but I wanted to start on some Christmas stitching anyway. We won't put the tree up until after Thanksgiving, and in the new place, there are far less places to put Christmas decor. But I will definitely frame this up and hang it somewhere. Pattern is by SirenStitchWorks on Etsy. It says "A Blessed Yule" in Scottish. I'm actually shocked at how quickly it came together. I finished it in two days while watching true crime documentaries after work and on my lunch break!
I kept my 2024 Ort Ornament out last year so I could fill it after I had done all the cross stitching for the year, and since all my Christmas was packed up, I didn't wanna lose it. I just grabbed it and labeled it with my paint markers and I also found, while unpacking craft stuff, the empty one I purchased for 2025 and painted "2025" on it. I can't remember if I started the ornaments in 2021 or 2022... I'll have to wait to fill the new one until the final stitch I do this year. What will it beeeee....? At least I can hang 2024 on the tree this year! It's a little less filled than I remember... but not to worry, I've done more cross stitching this year than any other in the past and so I feel like 2025's MAY be a bit fuller!
