Santa ornaments on Luke's tree.... I wanted to share some ornaments that go on Luke's tree...Before he was born i always had a santa/old toys tree in the extra bedroom...So now these ornaments are his until he can decide what he wants...These are some of my favorite ones I've stitched through the years....I still have others to do...I hope you're having a good Saturday and staying warm..It is cold here in Georgia today after it being muggy and 79 on Wednesday!!...We finally turned on the heat last night for the first time...I told Tim it was time...Off to x-stitch and watch a Christmas movie!!~~hugs, Jen at 4:47 PM The Farmers Oldest Daughter said...

You always do such amazing work with your stitcheries.
These are truely something to cherish!! Oh, Jen...I am in absolute awe of your wonderful Santas! When I first saw them...my mouth just hung open and I think I was drooling! Seriously....I even had to call my husband to come look! They are beautiful. Everything you do is beautiful! Thank you so much for showing me your great ornaments. I love them....can you tell?

December 12, 2009 at 6:44 PM Wow Jen - those are amazing! I did a just few like that back in my hey day and the shading in the colors - I know that is not easy !!

December 12, 2009 at 7:19 PM I adore those old Sanats! Very cute, and I know that each one took a bit of time :-) It's been years since I've done cross stitch with that much detail! Thanks for sharing- and I think that Santas are perfect for a little boys tree!

December 12, 2009 at 8:10 PM Jen these are just beautiful and what a lot of work!

December 12, 2009 at 9:21 PM Wonderful ornaments and some look familiar. I have some like that from the old Christmas cross stitch book.

December 12, 2009 at 10:48 PM Love the ornaments...what a lucky little boy:)

December 12, 2009 at 11:35 PM What beautiful ornaments and so much work in them. I bet they look beautiful on the tree.

December 12, 2009 at 11:49 PM A lot of work indeed, but something your son can hold onto for years to come. They are amazing!

I agree also that you have a beautiful home.

December 13, 2009 at 7:23 AM The santa ornaments are wonderful! You put so much time in them... These will definitely be a treasured heirloom when he is older.

Jen, your cross stitch ornaments for Luke's tree are gorgeous. So vivid in color. I always like to check out your blog, always a treat. I hope your Christmas movie was good. Sherie

December 13, 2009 at 10:58 AM Jen - love the cross-stitch orns. They are beautiful. I have a patriotic tree every year. Would you care to share the name of the book/patterns name that they came from? I would love to purchase it and work on these for my next years tree.
