I'm behind on my crafting again because I have been super busy at work. I recently had some court appearances that required additional preparation and I am preparing for another trial. So, I am writing about a project I completed some time ago.
I found these cross stitch ornaments on Amazon. They are Dimension's Christmas Pals, and they can be found here. I thought they were super cute, so I had to make them.
The kits contained the pattern, cross stitch cloth, thread, and needle. The pattern was easy to follow. However, each of these ornaments had a lot of detail work, so they took quite some time to complete.
Instead of using the cardboard that came with the kit, I used a thicker adhesive board. For the hangers, I used some leftover silver cording I had from another project. I glued them to the back of the adhesive board using my glue gun.
Cute ornaments! Thanks for the link! I just might have to make my own.

Love the ornaments, very cute! I did some cross stitch when I was younger, but didn't have the patience for it so I didn't do it for long. Wish I did though, because I see so many beautiful things cross stitched. Thanks for sharing!
