It must be getting close to Christmas - this is three Christmas project posts in a row! This is a little zipper and bead Christmas tree ornament I will be teaching as one of the free mini workshops for the Calgary Guild of Needle and Fibre Arts this month There are quite a few tutorials for these online but they all seem to involve a glue gun./ Instead I used a large tapestry needle and perle cotton to hold mine together. Either way, they are cute and fun to make!
So, here it is... finished! Once again, this was a workshop taught by Kim Beamish. I love her projects- they are such fun stitches. Managed to frame this one myself with a thrift store frame complete with matts that I repurposed and I am very pleased with how it turned out. I will be stitching this again because I messed up several times and want to do it again and get it right. Even with the mistakes I made though - I love it!
