Subject: It’s that time 🎄 😊. Lallyornaments!!!

It’s time to start planning your Lally Ornament for 2022.
I don’t have the rule page ready but all of a sudden it hit me that we usually get the notice in August.

It’s so much fun to get that package right after Thanksgiving and be able to open a box of Outlander treasures. The ornaments range from beautifully simple to amazingly crafted.

I haven’t been able to load the last two year’s pictures but go to:

http://lallyornaments.blogspot.com

And you can see a whole bunch of ornaments from past years.
The only basic rule is that it has to have something to do with anything Outlander and we make 10 each to share.

More info to follow.

[> [> Jump in and you'll surprise yourself with an Outlander inspired ornament. There are so many images from the Books - birds, insects, pigs and people, snakes in the outhouse! Use cross stitch, quilting, paint or paper, clay or craft items assembled, knitted or crocheted, and more! Make a practice one and see where it leads you. I randomly opened the Books and read about a kingfisher and then learned a new technique of felting to create the baby kingfisher. It was fun! -- TeriB waving from the monsoon desert of Nevada, Thu, August 11 2022, 6:33:06

[> [> [> Teri is amazing! She tries something different every year and they’re all wonderful. I wanted to try felting but my hands won’t take it so I love my little kingfisher, Teri! Joining Lallyornaments was as scary as doing QOTD for me. I watched for years before jumping in and now I’m the “organizer” and I use the term loosely because I’m not super organized. I can’t explain the joy when that box arrives each year. And the smiles as I do my Lallybroch Tree and reopen each ornament during the holidays. I do love singing though too! -- Kathy in PA, Thu, August 11 2022, 12:07:20

[> [> There are woods in EVERY book and I love glitter 😊. I’ve done some that were pretty complicated for me but one year I just bought little hedgehogs, put a plaid bow on and quoted the “How do hedgehogs make love?” quote because my husband was in the hospital for weeks but I didn’t want to miss a year. -- Kathy in PA, Thu, August 11 2022, 12:01:34
