Ornament Exchange

This year my yahoo stitching group had an ornament exchange.  We each had to stitch an ornament and add goodies worth $5 to the package. 

I stitched this one for my friend Nancy in California.

 
This is a Praiseworthy Stitching design that was in this year's JCS Christmas Preview.  I changed the wording to a smaller font (using a VS freebie chart).
 
This is what Dane from Germany sent me:
 
 
The candy is chocolate covered marzipan.  I cut off a little piece last night to try--yum!
Here's a close up of the ornament.  It is a Shepherd's Bush design.
 
 
We have been stitching together for many years now, and my tree has lots of ornaments that the ladies in this group have stitched for me.
