Yes today is the day - I'm the next blogger on the 2012 Aufiril Christmas Ornament Hop along with Rosebud's Cottage and Bari J!
Here is my ornament:
It's a Summer Santa coz it's summer in my Christmas.
Of course being Aurifil, there are prizes! We have thread sets that will be given away at the end of the blog hop. In order to be in the winner's circle you need to comment on EACH of the three blogs each week ... winners will be chosen from those who commented after the blog hop is over.
All these ornaments are all the same size and use the same basic pattern ... the only thing that changes is the stitched design. When you're all done you'll be able to fill a small tree, make a set for a gift or pop them inside a Christmas card to send to someone far away!

Have fun!
I love Summer Santa. He is so cheerful and an unexpected setting.
