Michele at the Bristly Thistle has just posted photos of two boot ornaments she's stitched for her Christmas tree. They are darling! Michele spells out what stitches she used in her blog entry about these canvases, which always great.

I think the boot canvases may be by CBK Needlepoint Collections. I found similar boot canvases, as well as many other boots in different styles, on the Needle Works website. Start here--
