Have a Very Merry Christmas and Ornament Tutorial

On my last post I shared the Christmas Star ornament I made as present for my hubby a few years ago, you can see it here. I made a snowmen ornament this year and I decided to share how I made it.

I embroidered a snow globe ornament on my embroidery machine. Then to make it double faced I picked a fabric for backing. You need a just small piece so it's great to use your scraps.

I put the two fabrics face together and stitched close to the embroidery. I used a ribbon for hanging my ornament, cut around 14" ribbon and stitched it between the two fabrics. Don't forget to leave a 1,5 " opening for turning and stuffing.

I trimmed the excess fabric leaving around 1/4'' and clipped all the curves. Then I turned inside out and finger pressed and stuffed the ornament. Finally I hand stitched the opening. Here is the back side of the ornament:

I wish you a very Peaceful and Merry Christmas!

Virtual Christmas Quilt Show

I saw my friend Millie joined a Virtual Christmas Quilt Show. She inspired me to enter a quilt.


Here is a table runner I made for my friend Amanda. I got inspired by the red couch they have and it turn out to be a Christmas colors table runner. I used "Yuletide Floral Table Runner" pattern that my mother-in-law designed. She has a lovely blog you you can visit here.


I made this Christmas Star ornament few years ago as a present to my husband on my MIL Phaff machine. I used gold metallic thread as an accent. I remembered it was breaking a lot but I finished it! It was challenging to stuff the star also, but it was worthed!

Thanks to SewCalGal for for the great idea! To visit the Virtual Christmas Quilt Show click here.

I am still working on my Christmas gifts! How about you?

Have a happy holidays!
