Where has this month gone??? Just days ago it feels like we started the holiday mystery and here we are at the last class already.
I found great buttons that were perfect additions to the Noel and Jingle canvases and as you know with me, one thing leads to another and before you know it we have jingle bells on the canvas too! What fun it is when your canvas jingles…… and you are still stitching on it.
I did add a few more beads in the background for a little extra sparkle.
I know I will finish mine as pillows but the current game plan is for them to be very different pillows. I’m waiting for trim to arrive. As soon as it does, the elves will work their magic. Yes, the elves are tired but they want to see these pillows complete too, so I think they will work quickly.
The shop is closed for a few extra days around Christmas. I’ll be working hard on stitching other things to make you smile during the gray days of winter.
Happy Holidays everyone!

What a perfect finish. Can't wait for my canvas to come in.
Absolutely wonderful. It has been fun to see your Mystery Class participants post their finished Merry Christmas on their blogs, too. Awesome. Holiday Hugs to you and all at B&B. Robin
Hi, Ruth – I'm excited to see your finishing touches to the Noel canvas. I am starting the letters tonight and they will be my Christmas stitching. Can't wait to see the finished pillow! I have loved everything about the mystery class right down to the packaging of the threads in the cute cello bags. Small things like that make such a difference – thank you for a great project! I know I'll be back for more!
Hi AlL:
Keep posting pictures, having fun and stitching. It makes us love what we do even more!
Love you all
Ruth
Thanks Ruth for the pictures and the wonderful blog this year. I have posted a photo of my Merry Christmas pillow along with a pillow I did 30 years ago on my new blog, splittheneedles.blogspot.com What a difference!
