Vintage Christmas Ornament #5

Late again, but I’m really hoping to get back on track real soon!

If you’re just joining in on The Vintage Christmas Ornaments Quilt-Along, you can click HERE to get started. All the related links are also in the sidebar to the right.

So here we go with Ornament #5!

Here’s the embroidery version:

As usual, I show you what stitches and colors I used where in the pattern, but it’s only a guideline. Feel free to do your own thing!

Here’s my appliqué version for the throw quilt option:

Just like on my previous ornaments for this version, I made my stripes out of rickrack, to keep my rickrack theme going!

Here’s my appliqué version for the wall quilt option. I’m showing you yet another method for attaching the stripes with this one. I like to give you plenty of options for doing things, cos my grandma always said: “There’s more than one way to skin a cat!”

So yeah, still lots of options here, so have fun making them all your own!

The pattern is available as a PDF instant download in Hazel’s Mercantile for $1.75. The pattern has all the instructions for all the versions of the ornament shown above, along with full-size templates, piecing instructions, appliqué tips, the embroidery stitch chart with colors, placement information, and anything else I could think of to include. It’s ready for download, so you can get started right away!

As usual, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me and ask. I’ll be happy to answer!

I’m gonna try to get myself pulled back together, so that Ornament #6 can still make its debut on June 11th, which is just a week away!

Happy Stitching!
