Ornament Tales: Day 20

Tonight's ornaments I stitched for the trees at Cheekwood Botanical Gardens in Nashville some time back...so long that I am having trouble remembering the year. I thought that I knew right where some photos of these ornaments were, but I did not find them. Cheekwood some years back did an annual display of many trees. I'm not sure if they do it any more. My Embroider's Guild of America chapter was asked to decorate a tree one year and that it these ornaments got to grace that tree. My chapter at that time was the Cheekwood Chapter. The theme that year was Sugar Plums so I stitched ornaments that reminded me of sweets...that year I was doing needlepoint. I enjoy seeing these on my tree these days and remembering back to how honored I felt to have some of my ornaments displayed on one of the Cheekwood trees. Today I have been busy getting ready to go to Abigail's and Payton's tomorrow for our annual Dorrell/Proctor family Christmas celebration. My contribution is a couple of pans of enchiladas. They are tucked in the refrigerator awaiting Abigail's oven tomorrow! 'Tis the season! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
