the last of the felt angels

I finished the last of the felt angel ornaments! Yay! I expected heavenly music or a beautiful fanfare when I snipped the last thread, but all was quiet as I hung Angel Number 7 on our ficus tree.

Before the job could really, really be finished, the project bag had to be emptied. I sorted embroidery floss, threw away the dog-eared instructions, and stored the extra sequins. I shook the lint out of the bag, folded it neatly, and put it in my bag-o’-bags to await another project.

I have two unopened Christmas felt kits. One has four ornaments, covered with sequins—oooo, spaaaarkly. The other is a tree skirt with sequin poinsettias. They are lurking among our stuff that is in storage, waiting for us to build a house. I can’t find them, and it’s probably for the best.

Now I can concentrate on finishing Ella’s pink cardigan, which is coming along nicely. The measured approach worked so well with the angels, I plan to set similar goals for the cardigan.
