I made these two ornaments for my nieces, Tesla and Joules. (Can you tell their mama is an engineer? :blush:) If you look the “candy cane” type part is their initials, T and J! Finally forced myself to sew them into ornaments today so I can mail them off to Missouri! :mailbox_with_mail:

Size : Stitched area on each is 2.5 inches x 2.5 inches.
Fabric : 28 ct Evenweave - Light Blue
Pattern : By Fiona Crouch - From CrossStitcher November 2019 Magazine
Time : About 4 days each.
Fun Factor : Pretty fun. I think the designs are super cute. The backstitching really brings it together. For the white I also included a strand of silver so the snow is sparkly when it moves (which you can’t really tell in the picture. :slightly_frowning_face:)
Changes : None - other than add a bit of sparkle!

And onto photos and close-ups!

Here’s the cutie J ornament for little Joules.

It’s hard to tell but each bottom of the snowglobe has 2020 stitched really small.

These are so sweet! I love all the ornaments I am seeing on here. I love how these are personalized. I am also a huge fan of Christmas deer so I favor the “J” one.

What sweet ornaments! I love that you used cross stitching to make ornaments! I’ve always wanted one of those cross stitched family ornaments (like my husband, son, and I in cross stitch form), but I’m not a cross stitcher.

I think I’ve seen three cross stitched ornaments of yours so far and they are all wonderful!
