A little Christmas finish

A while ago I bought a load of Tiny Treasure Diamonds by Mill Hill off a seller on ebay. Both the children chose one that they liked and I said I would stitch them for their Christmas trees this year. I had the one that Luke chose in my handbag but it wasn't a very good choice really as you can't bead on the move! When I cleared out my old bag last week when I bought a new one, I decided to get it finished at home. After 2 days stitching and beading, here it is..........

Luke was a little superstar and helped with beading the final piece of fringe, only dropping 2 beads! Not bad for a 7 year old who is clumsy at the best of times. Then he helped me to shred the filling and to stuff the ornament. Well done Luke!
