craft-n-show...Jesse Tree ornaments

my hands are starting to feel normal again!!! So I made them get right back on the horse, so to speak.

I still need to attach hanging ribbons...

I am, as usual, in awe of your handwork and craftmanship. Although, I have to admit I have no idea what a Jesse Tree is, lol. I'm guessing it's a religious thing?

Wow! Those are very cool! How big? How long did they take you? Why is it people don't include these little details when they post?

Okay, I've now looked over the pages you linked to and I still don't know how big. : ) And did you blanket stitch all of the pieces on? It looks like you did! Another wow.

Those are awesome.

thanks, mamas!

they're something like 3-4 inches...I used a small peanut butter jar lid as a template

I didn't blanket stitch everything...the pictures are mostly whip stitched with a bit of chain stitch where needed. Just the outside of the circles are blanket stitched. I started Wed and finished Sat night...I had the circles cut out before this though. My pictures are bigger than the ones shown on that site...I only used them for reference but not as a pattern.

They are beautiful, as is the tree in the other post

I'm always in awe of your work. Do you know that needlebook you made for me is one of my most useful things..I love it.
