Have you made all of the ornaments so far? (It&#8217;s okay if you haven&#8217;t. They aren&#8217;t going anywhere. :) )<\/p>\n<p>I decided to end by giving you a choice between TWO patterns this week.<\/p>\n<p>Why? Because, the 12 weeks ended at exactly the same time as I had planned to begin the <b><a href=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/market\/product\/christmas-countdown-collection-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">5th Annual Christmas Countdown Collection.<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Yes, the FIFTH! <i>(that is really hard for me to believe.)<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Each year, I&#8217;ve done a special bundle of ornament patterns, and so this year.. yessss! Even though this year, Monica and I weren&#8217;t completely sure we could pull it off (ha!)&#8230; we did! <b>The 5th Christmas Countdown Collection is HERE.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>And this year, we&#8217;ve got two BRAND NEW patterns for you in the bundle! <i>(Not to mention a <b>ton <\/b>of freebies &amp; bonuses. More on that below.)<\/i><\/p>\n<h4>First up, we&#8217;ve got the Trinity Knot Pattern&#8230;<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/market\/product\/christmas-countdown-collection-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"SP-TrinityKnot-ChallengeFabric\" src=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/SP-TrinityKnot-ChallengeFabric.jpg\" alt=\"SP-TrinityKnot-ChallengeFabric\" width=\"850\" height=\"566\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The <b>Trinity Knot pattern<\/b> is Monica&#8217;s take on an ancient Celtic knot work design, featuring three beautifully interlocking segments. Once again Monica has come up with something totally unique and beautiful! (I seriously don&#8217;t know how she does it.)<\/p>\n<h4>And then, we&#8217;ve got the Shooting Star Pattern&#8230;<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/market\/product\/christmas-countdown-collection-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"red-green-gold-shooting-star-quilted-ornament-1\" src=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/red-green-gold-shooting-star-quilted-ornament-1.jpg\" alt=\"red-green-gold-shooting-star-quilted-ornament-1\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This pattern started for me by accident over the summer, when I was playing around with the Basic Star pattern for the #12DaysofSummer Challenge. I knew I was on to something, but I wanted to spend some time to really get it nailed down, and make it <b>easy to learn,<\/b>before I officially released it. Well, now it&#8217;s ready! (Along with some variation ideas, including going from two colors in the center, to three.)<\/p>\n<p>For each of these two patterns, you get the full-length eBook AND the full-length video tutorials.<\/p>\n<h4>Oh, and did I mention the BONUSES?<\/h4>\n<p><i><b>In addition<\/b><\/i> to the 2 eBooks, and 2 Videos, you&#8217;ll get:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A video from Monica showing you tips &amp; variation ideas for the Trinity Knot pattern.<\/li>\n<li>Another video from Monica showing you some tips &amp; easy ways to cut your fabric for the Trinity Knot pattern.<\/li>\n<li>A PDF Guide AND video from Monica showing you the &#8216;Ribbon Method&#8217; for easily finding the North &amp; South poles on your foam ball, if they aren&#8217;t pre-marked (with no measuring!)<\/li>\n<li>A video from me showing you an &#8216;alternate ending&#8217; for the Shooting Star pattern.<\/li>\n<li>A video showing you how to turn the original 2-color variation of the Shooting Star, into 3-colors.<\/li>\n<li>A printable Reference Guide listing the fabric cuts you&#8217;ll need for several variations of the Shooting Star pattern.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><u><a href=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/market\/product\/christmas-countdown-collection-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">So, so much in this bundle!<\/a><\/u><\/h4>\n<p>I will share my (and Monica&#8217;s) <b>Challenge versions<\/b> of these two new patterns over the next day or two, so please be on the lookout for that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the meantime, you can get BOTH of these brand new patterns in this year&#8217;s special Christmas Countdown Collection at a special price, <a href=\"https:\/\/ox353.infusionsoft.com\/app\/linkClick\/8492\/8a38246ca54359f7\/7440380\/7210d4884a8c0dc1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">right HERE.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/market\/product\/christmas-countdown-collection-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Special eBook Bundle 2018\" src=\"https:\/\/theornamentgirl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Special-eBook-Bundle-2018.jpg\" alt=\"Special eBook Bundle 2018\" width=\"850\" height=\"1000\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We REALLY hope you enjoy trying out these new patterns!
