Last Friday came and went so fast…as do most of my December days. I missed sharing my stitching progress, so here it goes…
I stitched a pathetic 2,126 stitches on two projects during November.
My monthly assignment on Salute to Abigail.
Now we find ourselves in December where things are happening fast and furious. (very dramatic, I know!)
The first weekend in December is Jingle Ball. Jingle Ball is a virtual cross stitch retreat hosted by Stephanie Webb of Lindy Stitches. She and 12 cross stitch designers provide not only exclusive designs, classes, speed dating, stitching rooms, but also entertainment throughout the weekend. The ticket to attend the Jingle Ball is only $15. That gets you the entertainment, meet and greets with the designers, the stitching rooms, access to the exclusives in each of the designer’s shops, and so much more. If you sign up for a class then you have the option to receive a kit of the project that the designer is offering, or you can get a .pdf of the chart and kit it yourself.
I signed up for two classes.
Primrose Cottage Stitches Merry Stitchmas on a mesh bag.
I got the front stitched and my initials charted for the back. I will show you the back next week when it is finished.
The second class I took was from Annie Beez for her Christmas Pears. I did not purchase a kit but put it together with all of the called-for materials. Annie taught us how to put the pears together.
I look forward to receiving this box each year. The guys get an exclusive pattern from a wonderful designer and include all the supplies and fun accoutrements to provide a nice holiday stitch.
Everything is always so nicely packaged.
Pattern, fabric, scissors....
All the floss you need to complete the chart. Also included is a nice
thread organizer, needle minder, needle, scissor cover and lovely card.
The chart is "Christmas Morning at the Atelier"
This is the fourth in a series from Twin Peak Primitives
That is all I have for today my friends. I'm finishing up the holiday decorations this weekend and will be back Monday with a few photos.
Enjoy your weekend and thank you for stopping by.
See you soon,

Lots of stitching fun, Jeanna! I love that bag! Fun pears too. Christmas Morning at the Atelier is so cute! Progress on your stitcheries, beautiful.
You have almost convinced me to do more cross stitch..but I realize that my eyes would be unhappy doing it.
Your "pathetic" amount of stitching would be amazing for me - lol! I love Merry Stitchmas - so cute.
These are lovely, Jeanna. Your what you call pathetic is fantastic work 👏 I don't have talent in crafts. Thank you so much for sharing, dear friend 🧡
Fun to see what you've been working on, Jeanna! Salute to Abigail looks lovely. And your weekend of stitching at the Jungle Ball event sounds so fun! I love the mesh bag project. Sweet Christmas box, too - fun project! Enjoy!
The different projects all look like so much fun. I'm sure you won't run out of things to do just yet!!
You always find the best projects to stitch! I love that fun Christmas box. You get so many need goodies in that one. This time of year is challenging to get any stitching done so I think you're doing great!
So many lovely projects to work on - I love the Christmas Box. xx
Hi Jeanna, I loved this post! Thank you for sharing so many goodies. I had a good look at each and every one. That event was wonderful, wasn't it. Happy Stitching from me!
