Since I've made so many ornament this year, I decided to try my hand at a new finish...the flat fold! I followed Vonna's instructions from her blog and managed to get it done. I may change a couple of things next time but overall I'm happy with the result. I'm going to do Be Merry the same way, in fact the fabric is all cut & ready so I just need to cut the foam core. I wasn't sure about the glitzy gold stuff around the edge, but it's my favourite edging at the moment. I got it at the $2 shop & bought it in both silver & gold. If they have it again this year, I'll be buying 3 reels of both! There's nothing like a bit of bling. :)

Great job Alison. And a girl can never have too much bling!
looks wonderful Alison. I've been wanting to stitch this pattern for ages and now I've seen yours, you've inspired me to get on and stitch it very soon :)
Very cute, Alison. Congratulations on a lovely finish!
Very adorable! Sue
I absolutely adore that Be Jolly design - and the flatfold really suits it (love the gold trim too, it really sets it off beautifully!).
