Hey Blog Buddies,
I admire those bloggers who post their vintage stuff complete with name of design and designer, type of linen and floss and even start and finish dates! I must admit that I was very bad about keeping track of what I made and when I made it before I started this here blog. I never took photos back then, either. I do, however, have an educated guess about what was the very first Christmas ornament that I made.

This was made not too long
after we got our first dog--
Maxine, a basset--
on July 30, 1976.
That date I do remember!
I don't remember
ever making any ornaments
prior to that.
I can tell you that it's
crewel embroidery on felt
(the long and short stitch with
French knots for the hat fur).
Crewel was BIG in the 70's
for those of you
too young to remember.
What was the first ornament you made?
Thanks for visiting!
