I've found these type of cross-stitch projects make a perfect means of celebrating each of my (3) sisters. I find kits that "fit the mood", break them into individual pieces, and create their personalized holiday ornaments for them. They actually treasure the efforts and final product. Each year, they display the ornaments (framed, etc.) around their homes. I've been doing this for well over 2 decades now. Just a little something that a brother can do to let his sisters know just how much he appreciates each and every one of them.
