This is Joy by Rovaris from the 2018 JCS Ornament Issue. It's stitched on 20-count gold speckled Lugana, one over one. Because my white floss didn't show up at all on this fabric, I had to make a couple of changes. The ribbons on both packages were stitched in red instead of white and I omitted the white snowflake that is supposed to hang on the Y. I used regular DMC floss, except for the red, which is the new sparkly floss from DMC. This was stitched for the JCS Stitch Along group on Facebook

My first WIP is another of the Advent Animals, this time it's Ethan Elephant, the 21st animal. I'm skipping 18, 19 and 20 for the moment because 21 and 22 are both visible in the current position of my Q-snaps.
My other WIP for this week is Consumed by Gifts by Brittercup Designs from the 2010 JCS Ornament Issue. It has at least one error (maybe two) that I discovered during last night's stitching session so there will be some frogging or fudging tonight.
