It's almost the shortest day here in New Zealand and soon we will literally be counting down to Christmas.
I had a scrap of linen left over from the last ornament and rather than waste it created these which will be stuck to card to make gift tags, What a good idea do I hear you say? Well I think so.
I've not decided whether to fringe all four or not. I'll stick this scarlet suede effect contact adhesive to thin card and glue the tags on. With a ribbon through one end they should make effective gift tags.
Each year I make an ornament each for the nieces and nephews - five in total. Tonight I started number four so am well on track. But I do have another deadline project to be completed by September so must keep up the momentum.
I'm off to bed with a hot water bottle tonight.

Wonderful idea, Margaret! They're adorable!
Very nice little ornaments,

Thank you. I try to use up every square inch of linen as it is so expensive.
These are lovely, I hope the recipients appreciate them! I am the same with scraps of linen too.
Counting down for Christmas is an excellent idea! You can never start early enough. Lovely gift tags too, I think I like them a little better without the fringed edges.
