My completed ornament

I ended up changing out the Antique Rose for Manor Red(crescent colors) and I used Desert Mesquite for the border instead of Evergreen.
I trimmed it with ruched ribbon.
What do you think?

Christmas Ornament Floss Toss

Here is my floss toss for the freebie Chrtistmas ornament. I want mine to look old, so I chose 35ct. straw linen (not sure of the maker, this was in my stash),  Gentle Art Sampler Threads and Weekes Dye works threads.
 Here are my selections:
DMC 349...GAST Antique Rose
 DMC 839................Weekes Bark
DMC 3052......GAST Evergreen
DMC 3774...........Weekes Mocha
DMC3827...............Weekes Gold
DMC ecru...GAST Roasted Marshmallow


Note that the conversion for DMC 3774, which is Desert Sand vy lt, I changed to a much darker mocha color. Otherwise it is basically ecru next to ecru! I often get into this trouble when designing because my program monitor does not show the DMC colors true. Hope this doesn;t cause anyone fits, just consider yourself a model stitcher! LOL!
