Yea! A Finish!

I have completed the first finish for 2009! Yea!
As you can see, this is the "JOY" Tree by M Designs that I got out of Just Cross Stitch 2007 Ornament edition. I thought this tree was going to be A LOT smaller than it turned out - it's actually 5x7. I am glad I got this completed, I love these trees that M Designs produces the charts for, I would love to do more of them!
I stitched this on silver sparkle Aida cloth and I used DMC 3804 for the stitching. I used a Mill Hill red star to perch on top of the tree and also used Mill Hill purple beads throughout. Pretty!
I am now working on another small Christmas ornament - the Britty Puppy from the same issue. Hopefully he will be done by the end of the day :)
Also, I have made sure all my picture links work for the listings on the side --->

  5. I love the M trees! If you do it on smaller count, you would get a smaller tree.....
