Bouquet of December

Hello friends and fellow bloggers,

Seems a strange name for this chart doesn't it ... but it is a bounty of Christmas goodness. It comes as a freebie from Madame La Fee. Just click on 'free charts' and you will find it there along with many others. I just had to stitch it on the black linen. There is a couple of DMC 310 stitches which I did change to a darker red of DMC 814. I think I may have to do the 'Candy Cane' chart in the same way so I have a pair.
 
 
Bouquet of December - Madame La Fee.
32ct Black Belfast Linen.
Recommended DMC threads except changed DMC 310 to DMC 814.
Finished as an ornament.

Other bits of news ... I have finished another piece off but I'm sending that one out as a Christmas gift so I will wait and blog about it then. I have now run out of mountboard so any other finishing will have to be put on hold until I can get to town for some more. The next Santas Village section is so nearly finished too. Another evening and it should be there. So hopefully not long to wait until my next blog post.
 
Until then ...

  7. What a beautiful ornament. You were ambitious to stitch it on black. It looks great, but I find black fabric hard to see and don't use it often.

  14. I love the fact that you have all of this beautifully decorated and ready for Christmas. The designs are both refreshing and extremely neat and must have taken both a great deal of time and a lot of patience.
    They are all lovely!

  16. I love the way black fabric makes the colour spring to life. I have never stitched on black though I have a couple of charts kitted on black so hopefully once a few more of my ufos are done I will be trying it for myself.
