2009 Christmas Challenge April Ornament

The Stag
Helga Mandl Designs
DMC 14ct Marbled Aida
DMC Fibers
Here's my April Ornament for the Christmas Ornament Challenge. I stitched this design for one of nieces for Christmas and liked it so much I had to have one for myself. I've already chosen my design for May to stitch. I don't usually stitch on Aida, however this design just seemed to work on the fabric. I braided three strands of small twine to make the hanger.
Off to cut fabric and pull threads for my Prairie Schooler Exchange! Have a great stitching day.
