Tonights progress- Christmas Ornaments

YES... it is almost 2:30 in the morning.  The drs have started me on an antibiotic for the ear infection that disturbs my sleep... so I sit here awake. 

I have been able to start tonite the ornament I am working on for my grand daughter.  This will be her 2nd Christmas, and I hope to do this each year for her and for my kids.

I had planned to do a totally different ornament but this past weekend when I went to our Tiara Club Retreat... we had a free to a new home table... I was able to find this littme Margaret Sherry ornament in the 2007 CrossStitcher magazine.  It reminded me so much of that precious lil girl... I decided that THIS was to be her ornament this year. 

I have started itbon a 25 ct ivory evenweave linen... and am using the ccolora it calls for.  I have not decided if I am going to use fuzzy stuff for the top of the stocking still debating on that. 
I have included a few pics of the progress... and one of the front cover that shows what it looks like. This has been so far pretty fun... but a lot of half stitches, and different shades used in it. 

THANK YOU for stopping by and looking please let me know how it is looking.
