Description First ornament by Blackwork Journey for my daughter, the front (with the beads) is from the website and the back I put together myself.....I was not putting beads on both sides as I have a habit of dropping seed beads everywhere so limit using them lol. Whipstitched it together like for the small stockings which is so much easier and quicker  as the Blackwork/backstitch alone took about 2 days to do and time was running short.......just need to iron out the hiccups when going into a corner.

Stitched on 14 count with DMC threads and Mill Hill seed beads, the ribbon's attached by a jump ring (same way as small stockings)

Thanks, still trying to work out how to whip stitch into 90° corners without the thread bunching up so it bulks out
