Me again

Hey.  What's happening?  Forgot to show how I hang ornaments from wall baskets.  I had a few emails asking, but can't find them now.  Other computer maybe? 
It's simple - just insert a thin nail or straight pin with a head into the outer rim of the basket, straight down.  Keep stabbing until you find a spot, leave it up about 1/2" and hang your ornament.  Use a magnet to pull the pin out should it fall all the way in.


It works great for flat back baskets too.

 
Jingle Bird is almost finished and I am feeling better today.  Why?  I talked to my sister and she can barely speak.  She just can't get her breath so the sooner this is done the better.   80% get their breath back, 20% do not.  We're thinking positive, still anxious, but it has to be done.
Thank you all so much for your prayers and good wishes.

Beautiful pieces and a nice idea for baskets. I usually put punch needle on mine, but this is a nice way to do them without permanently attaching them. I do like the square one, have seen them in stores and that is really a nice way to add greenery with the pieces.

You have a way to display your stitching that highlights the piece and adds warmth-all are lovely. So many friends praying for you and Carole must be encouraging for you both. Know you are not alone since our thoughts and prayers will continue.
