June 21, 2019--This turned out to be a really cute ornament. Love all the shine and dimension. Debbie used French knots on her example, but suggested beads would work as well. So beads it was for me (find them easier to stitch than French knots). Now to make some cording and a tassel. Will post the finished results soon.

May 11, 2019--Sometime in January of this year, Debbie Rowley of
DebBees Designs offered a free ornament for 2018 through
FiberTalk, the Podcast by Gary Parr. I ordered this unusual design and just recently began stitching it. Debbie uses a new 6 strand thread by DMC called Etoile (click
here for a nice review). I find this thread easy to work with and it gives a soft look of sparkle. Below is my progress to date.

Since this one is dated 2018, I wonder if she'll produce a new ornament each year going forward (cannot find ornaments for prior years).
Looks like a fun project. I'm taking a class with Debbie in Houston and looking forward to it. I also had a peek at your "Sisters". Loved it. Mine is finished but not yet framed.
