- I don't know how many of you were following my mumblings a couple of years ago when I cross stitched a series of Christmas ornaments, but it's been suggested that I link once again to the pattern designer who lives in the Ukraine. We need to support artists there if we can, so I can recommend THIS shop. If you don't see anything there you like, expand your search for other Ukrainian designers. If you want to see the ornaments I made, check the 'cross stitch' label in my sidebar.
- There are lots of cute quilt block ideas HERE.
