HoE Reindeer from Tricia

It was a great day Saturday for mail.  With all the snow we've had, I've been pretty much homebound.  So this little ditty from Tricia  brought a smile to my face.  It's part of the HoE Reindeer exchange.  If you look carefully, you see that the reindeer are really sheepdeer!.  So cute.  I really love it.  Thank you Tricia.

Scissor Keep received by Tricia

I saw on the Exchanging with BeckySC blog that Tricia received the scissor keeper I stitched for her. I chose Victoria's Sampler ornament from the 2009 JCS Ornament issue. I used 28ct cappuccino fabric and the called for DMC threads. The beads and buttons were from my stash. Tricia said she liked it, so I'm pleased. It was a fun stitch once I got going. My eyes were giving me such fits due to allergies and some eye strain. It's hard to stitch when your eyes are dripping!! I haven't received my exchange piece yet but sure it will arrive soon.
