A Little Gift For My Friends

Merry Morning!

My Christmas Gift To You, 

My Friends!  

"MERRY, MERRY"

I'm sorry it is

a wee bit late, but it is a quickie.

Just use your favorite Christmas colors.

My favorite linens right now are 30 Count

"Putty" from Weeks and 30 Count

"Mink" from R & R Reproductions.

A think all the rich colors of Christmas as

well as the muted colors show up so well

on these backgrounds.  I would use two 

plies over two threads and two plies for the

Colonial Knots for the holly berries.  In the

spot to the right of the bottom holly leaf, I

would add a little embellishment of your

choice or another little motif like the one

to the left of the same leaf.

Hope you enjoy it!

When you get your ornament finished, I

would love to see it.
