Trillium Embroidery Guild Christmas Potluck Meeting.

Traditionally at our Christmas potluck, we have an ornament exchange. This year we had 9 ornaments!

I really liked the blackwork pattern done with green thread and the rick-rack around the outside.

This is the one I picked. Jeanette stitched this blackwork design with variegated pink thread and embelished with beads.

This beauty was stitched by Barb. She said she purchased the tassel. She has really gotten into stitching with great enthusiasm.

This is a cute way to finish an ornament

This image better shows the white stitches and variegated red threads.

 Jen stitched this one. It was one that she finished on our finishing day at my house.

This little one was so cute!

 Bernie also stitched her name and date on the back. Tying off the cording at the bottom that way created a little tassel. Very clever.

The lace was stitched on an embroidery machine with soluble stabilizer. Finishing it like a little pillow was very effective.

Sue stitched this one.

I contributed my Joy ornament.
