One Day Ornament - No "L" Sampler

This ornament is stitched on Zweigart 28 count ice blue Cashel Linen.  The designer is Eileen Bennett of the Sampler House. I think the No “L” – Noel play on words is very clever, although very un-Japanese. I’m using a sampler print fabric from my stash for the backing.


 With right sides together, I stitched around three sides, then cut off the extra.

 
For the insides, I glued thin batting to both sides of a piece of thick cardboard.

 
For a hanger, I attached a small piece of cording.  I put the inside in the ornament and stitched the opening closed.

 
Here is the finished ornament.
