I stumbled across a mention of this cross stitch design book on Facebook. It's a mix and match faces, skins, hairstyles, etc. book intended for cross stitch but if you don't mind the pixelated style, this would be a fun way to create personalized people in Christmas ornaments or to teach kids to stitch their families. There are also cats and dogs in many breeds to add your pets to the family portrait and there is an alphabet to use to label everything or add your family name or catch phrase. You can get a glimpse inside the book by clicking on the various photos.

The StitchPeople company also does custom portraits and kits for those who want some of the work taken out of the process.

Pam is raving about her new custom display table for a canvas she is stitching for her daughter. The builder has an Etsy shop where you can see Pam's table. The wood is reclaimed and she says the carpenter was great to work with. Thanks for the recommendation, Pam!
