Goodness knows what happened to May as I didn't even get my Chookshed Challenge out at all to work on. I'm hoping I will do much better this month. Had a look through the bin to find number 5, which is a set of small Christmas ornaments. This kit was a gift from my pen-friend Carol several years ago, and inside was a panel of pre-printed Christmas designs. Some of them required applique pieces and Carol had kindly added felt as necessary for me.
Gift from Carol
I had stitched these lovely little designs a couple of years ago, and they have been patiently waiting for me to take them to the next step. I've decided against making the stitcheries into tiny pillows, but instead will use the alternate design instructions to make a wall hanging, or maybe a table mat. So that is what I hope to achieve this month, wish me luck!

These are so cute! Definitely time to get them made into something you can display in your home.
those pieces will look good as a small wall hanging I think
I can see a wall hanging with a larger tree in the centre and each one on a branch. A bit like a clock.!!! They look really delightful.
What a nice little gift from a friend! Small. Doable. And it will make a nice holiday decoration. Enjoy the finishing!
These are so fun. It looks like lots of detail on most of them. However you decide to use them, they'll be wonderful.
A table centre and a new special placemat for you
Those look like they would be lots of fun to make. Love the idea of a table mat or small wall hanging.
God bless.
Such a lovely project to work on this month Jenny - those little panels are gorgeous. xx
Good luck with your plans. And you have reminded me that I have a similar set that I really should finish. I will see what you do.
I’m looking forward to seeing what you end up making, as I have the same little pre printed fabrics. They have been waiting patiently for years. Have fun with them.
They are very cute stitcheries. Using them for a wall hanging or table mat sounds good.
I think a few of us lost May somehow. Love your June project.
