From the photo I can't see how big those blocks are, so maybe that won't work. Alternatively you could stitch a basket.<br />As for the ornaments, why not have an on-line sale on you blog, or a give-away, if you won't use them.Dashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415154217182640049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697842410896958739.post-21138760259650324382014-09-21T15:10:16.618-05:002014-09-21T15:10:16.618-05:00Great Dresden.

As for the cross stitch, since you are a quilter why not put thin borders around the stitching with some ribbon for hanging. You could use them on a tree or as door knob hangers. Sometimes I finish my small cross-stitch motifs to hang on cabinet knobs around the house. You have quite a variety to choose from.CathieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15466163934848609107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697842410896958739.post-52143104625622085892014-09-21T13:12:15.003-05:002014-09-21T13:12:15.003-05:00ENjoy your stitching today!
