I stitched this for my friend Sue who is nuts about St. Patrick's day. She is the only person I know who decorates for the occasion. The green pins were made by dipping regular white pins into green fingernail polish.

I love your finish! I stitched this one up last year and it's still waiting for its final finishing. I'm hoping to finish it soon and add it to my St. Patrick's Day decor.
Oh I just love it!!!! I simply must do that one too.... I don't suppose you know where I can get more spare time for stitching?
Love your Got Luck - thanks so much for sharing the link to ghe chart.. LOVE LOVE LOVE your finish. Fingernail polish - AWESOME.
What an incredible ornament! You are so clever to paint the pins with green nail polish. I found your blog from the StitchingLotus Ornament SAL check-in and now I'm a new follower. Thank you for the link to the free chart. Debbie

Your friend, Sue is not the only one to decorate for St. Patrick's Day - I have a tree with Irish flags, pots of gold, shiny shamrocks and Irish lace garland! I love your ornament. How clever to think of using nail polish to get the color you wanted.

I like that ornament. And your method of getting the pins to be the right color was creative. Good for you.
