32. Mill Hill Beaded Trumpet


Stitched on 14 count Christmas Green aida
I substituted green Magnificas for the petite green beads and 
some red Mill Hill for the charted cranberry which I didn't have.  
I stitched this on aida rather than the perforated paper provided so I could use two strands instead of three,

31. Teresa Wentzler Byzantine Ornament II



Byzantine Ornament II by Teresa Wentzler

I made the same changes to this Ornie as I did with #1
I stitched on 28 count burgundy linen.  
I used the yellows as charted but changed the accent colour to DMC 321 and all the backstitch to DMC's gold 5284.  
I also changed the beads to 42011.
