At first I was going to use the blue one since I am partial to blue but nothing inspiring came of it. So, I changed my mind. There were so many really nice ones to choose from but I did have an idea.
Can you figure out which napkin I used?
The colours in this napkin were all in my stash and I decided to update the Christmas red and green in the ornaments.
Here's a better picture without the napkin. I had those snowflakes and thought they would make a nice addition.
I enhanced three of the ornaments with embroidery.
Click on any of the photos to view them better if you wish. All in all, a fun little project.

How lovely Delores.
ReplyDeleteThis is just beautiful!! I love all the little extra bits you did - the embroidery, the snowflakes - it's very festive!!! Happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteFabulous Dolores. Love your interpretation.
ReplyDeleteDolores this is fabulous!!! The snowflakes are a perfect touch, and I love the embroidery. The colors are WONDERFUL - really great to see something besides red and green. You rocked this challenge!
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic. I especially like the hand stitching on the ornaments. Beautiful work! Sharon
ReplyDeleteThat's not a napkin! It is way to pretty for that!!! You did a wonderful job, Dolores. Lucky receiver.
ReplyDeleteI love it, the background, the ornaments, the colours - everything! Thank you for playing along; I'm glad you enjoyed the challenge.
ReplyDeletegod good for you to do so much work (i couldn't)
ReplyDeletewell done,love the green
ReplyDeleteThe embroidery and snowflakes added the perfect finishing touch. Truthfully I think your inspiration came from TWO of the napkins - the colours you used from one and the Christmas ornaments from another.
ReplyDeleteHi Dolores,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great challenge and I love the choice of colours you used.
This is a beautiful project you have done.
Hugs

This is marvelous and I love how you embellished your quilt!
ReplyDeleteWow....i love how you embellished your christmas ornaments....I recieved a block challenge with those exact ornaments on it and it is very special too me, because they came from a fellow quilter who has now gone to be with the Lord....I wanted to add to these as her little note that came with it said how sorry she was she had not been able to complete it. when I seen you're touch to yours I knew that this was what I needed to do to make my block complete! thank-you for sharing and I'm off now to check and see what these inchies are all about
