Mischievous March #2 - June Moonstone

 For the second weekend of Mischievous March, I was kind of good and bad at the same time - I streched and bended the rules a bit, and my new start was actually from a series that I am already counting as one WIP on my list! It's Magical525's first 'Ornament of the Month' series from back in 2015. I stiched a lot of the ornaments when they came out, but some months had more than one birthstone (and thus, more than one ornament) associated with them, and I was still missing four of them. June has a total of four ornaments, I already stitched Pearl and Pink Alexandrite, and this past weekend, I started (and finished) stitching Moonstone!

This was a pretty quick stitch - took me just 3h46m for the front and the back! I'll move right along to finish-finishing this in the same way as I did all the other ornaments.

Now there is one more June ornament - Green Alexandrite - and two December ornaments left to go. Depending on how mischievous I'm feeling, I might make one of them my final start on the last weekend of March, but for now, I got something fun planned for next weekend - which is my birthday!

Very pretty, Leonore! And a big Happy Birthday to you on Sunday :) My son will be 39 that day, and we will be with him--hooray! Hope your day is special ♥

That is such a pretty ornament. Nice idea to use these for Mischievous March too.

June Moonstone is very nice! Happy Birthday!

Very pretty and less than 4 hours to stitch! Smokin' needle there.

This is a good MM piece in that it's small enough to be finished quickly rather than becoming a WIP, and helps to finish off a set. So happy that's another project crossed off your to-do list! :)
