Ornamentified!
19 December 2006
With six days to go before Christmas I have finally finished the Baby’s 1st Christmas ornament for my sister/nephew! 
While I had planned on giving the ornament to my sister early enough so she could hang it on the tree, I need to confer with my mom as to exactly when I should give it to her. I could give it to her as early as tomorrow, but we are having Christmas with my mom’s side of the family on Saturday and I was actually thinking of giving it to her then… that way a bunch of people could ooh and ahh over it… hee hee
This was the first time I have tried a finishing method that was anything but square and I am pleasantly pleased with the results. I don’t think that the back of the ornament got centered as neatly as the front side, but once the cording was added I doubt it is noticeable to anyone but me. (We are always our own worst critics, aren’t we?
)
And as my Christmas present to my readers, I remembered to photograph the process and have added a new tutorial entitled “Padded Shape Ornie” to my sidebar. Enjoy!
