Gingerbread Ornaments for your Christmas Tree! You can create three tiny Gingerbread stocking ornaments for your gift giving this year, each one showing various stitchers working on Christmas decorations and gifts. The first ornament: "We’re Ready for Christmas" shows an auburn haired woman with her little friend stitching those last minute gifts. "Spot Waits for Dinner" depicts a blonde woman with her little dog who’s been waiting for her to stop stitching and give him some dinner! Finally, "Stitching Mom and Daughter" is another loving scene with a dark haired woman who is stitching with her little daughter at her feet. The backs of each stocking can be personalized with name and date, and each one has a special Christmas button. These three cute ornaments are stitched on Gingerbread coloured linen like: Zweigart’s 'Antique Almond', Picture This Plus's 'Gingerbread', or Lakeside Linen’s 'Vintage Autumn Gold'. They are decorated and sewn together with white icing stitching. Collect and stitch all Gingerbread buildings, including the Gingerbread Bakery, and the Gingerbread House, Church, Candy Cane Cottage and Gingerbread Tree Etui, on your mantle. Also, look for the Gingerbread Cookies and Gingerbread Garden as well! Stitch, decorate and hang these delicious Gingerbread Stockings on your tree. Look for more Gingerbread Village additions in future years! Sending all of you a delicious and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from my house to yours! -Thea
