Christmas ornaments

I participated in 3 different Christmas ornament swap in the last months. The first swap was for a cross stitched Santa ornament. The pattern for my skating Santa came from an old pattern sheet without info. I think it’s from the seventies.

 I used DMC Jewell effects for his skates.

Luckily there was a matching fabric in my stash for the backside.

Barbara made this cute sleeping Santa for me in a 3 inch hoop.

In the second swap it didn’t matter what kind of material you used. I crocheted a star, designed by Brenda Smits. The pattern came from the book  Kerstballen haken.

Aletta made these pretty ornaments for me in papier mâché.

The last swap was fabric related. I sewed a 5 inch stocking on my sewing machine for Marja.

And Marja made these cute boots for me. Love the snow on them!

Thanks Barbara, Aletta and Marja!
