Woohoo! It's our turn to give you all a lovely ornament to decorate your tree, or house, or workspace, or....wherever!
Don't you ADORE ornaments? I bought a little sparkly white frosted tree last year, can't wait to get it out again and splash it with colorful ornaments.
Raise your hand if you already have Christmas decorations up and holiday tunes cranked up?!
We've been running around like crazy getting our ornament ready for the blog hop. Of course we had to get a tree just to hang it on! Thankfully, we had a little help from a couple of our Aurifil friends...
LOLOLOL! That just cracks me up every time!
Okay, now you're ready to ROCK with our Aurifil ornament.
We stitched this SWEET little winter mitten!

Cute ornament! My most treasured is a Santa made by my eldest son about 20 years ago!
ReplyDeleteI have many favorite ornaments, some old, many handmade and all different. They make my tree special! Thanks for the pattern.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute ornament! Thanks for the design. :)
ReplyDeleteMy most treasured ornament is a small metal train - about 12" long and 2" high. It was dirt cheap, but it was the first ornament I bought for my own house, and it has moved across countries and continents with me for the past 15 years. It has a place of honor on the coffee table every Christmas.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornament is a simple pearlescent ball in memory of our daughter lulu. Her name means pearl.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornament? That's a hard question to answer as I love so many of them for different reasons. But my most favorite ornament is the glass pine cone ornaments from my grandmother. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteFinally got to the right page. Had to click classic on the right. Love your ornament and thank youo. My favorite ornaments are painted-glass ones. They remind me of my childhood...many, many, many years ago....giggle.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite ornaments is a polymer clay snowman carrying a sign that says, 'I'm just a little flaky.' I bought it at a Christmas bazaar a few years ago. The gal had made the cutest selection of ornaments and pins.
ReplyDeletemy fav ornaments are those that i made for my sis almost thirty years ago ... crocheted in the round, white thread, starched and sprayed in a variety of ornaments - angels, bells, stars, balls, animals, birds, figures, any christmassy thing became an ornament that she still decorates her tree with every year.
ReplyDeleteI have a little blown glass bird cage that belonged to my mother. her brother gave it to her when she was just a teen. She is now 88, so it is very old. It no longer hangs on the tree, but has a special place year round on my piano. Your little mittens are adorable.
ReplyDeleteI love all kinds of Christmas decorations, but especially hand made ornaments. Love these embroidered ornaments and can't wait to get started stitching.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the cute ornament pattern, can't wait to make it!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your cute mitten ornament. I can't wait to get these all done. I just may have to go out and buy a cute little tree just for my Aurifil ornaments. I hope someone does a Aurifil tree topper.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornament is made of seashells. My husband and I chose it on a beach get-away about 15 years ago. Thank you for your ornament!
ReplyDeleteAdorable. fun patterns
ReplyDeleteI have so many ornaments that I love that I don't really think I could choose a favourite unless a tree topper counts. Then I'd have to say that our very first Angel tree topper simply because it was for my husband's and my very first tree back in 1981.

ReplyDeleteOh yeah another hit! My mos t recent favorite ornament is the ones we received from a daughter one year with all different pictures of the family on little squares, pinked edges and ribbon hangers.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornaments are the glass ball ornaments hand painted by my 80 something mother in law. They have snowmen, churches, flowers, old barns and other things painted on them.
ReplyDeleteMine has to be the silver bell given to my mother from her mother on my birth and given to me on the birth of my son. It's an old treasure.
ReplyDeleteLove the pattern!! These hops have made me smile. Favorite ornaments ever would have to be the antique mercury glass ornaments my grandmother had. The colors and the shapes against the very large Christmas Tree lights made them magical.

ReplyDeleteI love ornaments, especially non-traditionally colored with glitter. My favorite was on the tree when I was little, and I snagged it to add to my own tree. It's hot pink with glitter flowers on the side. Since I was the only girl, I thought it was mine all along, lol. Still a treasure on my tree each year.
ReplyDeleteLove the ornament. Thanks for sharing and for the opportunity on the draw

My favourite old ornament is the little house from my granparents firs tree back in 1927. My favourite new ornament is one I bought at Pike Place Market in Seattle about 19 years ago - so not SO new - it is a ceramic disc with a reindeer on it and it says "We All Shine On" that typifies the holiday spirit to me.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely ornament!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornament is a little mouse whose body is a bell. I remember it being on the tree when I was little (based on the date my mom wrote on it in paint pen, I would've been 2 when we first got it), and my mom gave it to me when I first got married and didn't have any ornaments to put up! My son loves it too :)
ReplyDeleteI don't have a favourite ornament I don't think, I just love anything with bright colours and glitter!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornament? I have a lot of favorites! But it's probably the first ornament my son ever made me! It's a snowflake with his picture in the middle! Melts my heart every time I see it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornaments are the ones my children have made over the years, and now grandchildren. Mittens make me so happy. Thank you it will look great all winter long on my hall tree.

ReplyDeleteLove the mitten and the JibJab!! That is too funny!
ReplyDeleteMy favorites are the painted ornaments my kids make every year. My mil paints wonderful ornaments and starting when my kids were about a year old or so, she has them each paint one. Love seeing their progress each year. Can't wait to find out what they paint this year!

ReplyDeleteI love the adorable mitten ornament.
ReplyDeleteLove this ornanament. My favorite is a woven copper basket with a braided handle that hold a Christmas chocolate carmel that belonged to my Grandmother.
ReplyDeleteGosh, that mitten with the swirly string is fabulous! Thanks for the pattern! My favorite ornament is one my grandmother made me that is a painted version of a cat. Years after she died, I found a new cat, and that Christmas I realized it looked just like Sweetie's painted muslin ornament!
ReplyDeleteThanks for such a cute ornament. Hmmmm, my favourite ornament is one made by my daughter when she was 7. So sweet.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite ornaments were the 50s-era bubble lights that we had when I was a child. Now I like the peppermint-striped shiny balls or twists.
ReplyDeleteMittens remind me of going sledding when I was little, first time out for the day our mittens would get wet, when we wanted to go out again that day we would hit our sock draw and put 2 - 3 pair on our hands. Thank you for the memory. My favorite ornament was given to me 34 yrs ago from a co-worker, teddy bear girl swinging on a swing and a teddy bear boy on a trike made out of what looks like crushed nut shells with the smell of cinnamon.
