What a beautiful city, no? I personally have never been there however my co-worker has this past May. So, after hearing she finally booked the flight, I got to work on this ornie for her for her 50th birthday, which is tomorrow (Wednesday). I stitched it a while ago but I finally finished it last night! *whew*!
Instead of using head pins all the way around it, I whip stitched the crystals and beads directly to the ornie...I simply LOVE how it turned out and I am much more pleased with the results! Click on the pics to see bigger and enjoy!







Joyeux Noel by Monsterbubbles from the JCS Christmas Ornament issue 2007 using WDW fabby and required threads and beads and finished into a pretty cool looking ornie (if I do say so myself!)
I participated in the first round of the Lizzie*Kate exchange and my partner received it about a month ago however I procrastinated posting the pictures of it. I didn't want to spoil it for her because she hasn't posted them yet but she did receive it so I guess its ok? I hope she enjoyed it...she really appears to be into her grand kids so this choice was an easy one.

Lizzie*Kate's Ask Me About My Grand kids Snippet using required fabric and DMC flosses and finished into a cube.

Very pretty.
Lori, your Paris finish is a beauty, and such wonderful backing fabric too! I also love your LK exchange piece, I wish your partner had put a pic on our site to show everyone, we do ask for that in the rules, if you want to put one on feel free, I'm sure the others would love to see it.

I loves dat Smokey Cat! How nice of him to humor the kids by playing games with them! BTW...Miss Taco has a crush on Smokey...our secret though.
LOL at the cat. Your stitching is lovely I would much rather the bead then the pins!

Your finishes are gorgeous! I am currently stitching a Paris design at the moment, I just wish I had some of that lovely fabric for the finishing!
Absolutely delightful, would love so much to stitch this one, would you mind sharing this chart? Thanks a lot, lori.french10@yahoo.fr
The beads always make a finer finish, good choice. I notice that this particular DS is not sprawled out sleeping on the floor or is it still early? lol be always in stitches
