Christmas Wishes Volume 1 ~ Holiday Ornaments
BRD-018

Set of four holiday ornaments with finishing instructions.

Stitch Count (per ornament) - 65 x 53

Model is stitched on 32 count Belfast linen by Zweigart - Flax (3609/520/55) over both one and two linen threads.

Model is stitched with Weeks Dye Works Cotton Floss and The Gentle Art Sampler Threads (DMC equivalents provided).

Gentle Art Sampler Threads:
Cinnamon (433) - 1 skein
Tarnished Gold (869) - 1 skein

Weeks Dye Works Cotton Floss:
Crimson (902) - 2 skeins
Whitewash (3865) - 1 skein
Seaweed (890) - 2 skeins

Floss estimation is for stitching all four ornaments with model specifics. DMC equivalents are only approximate, as there are no exact matches for hand-dyed floss.

Finishing supplies for all four ornaments (as shown):

DMC six-strand embroidery floss for twisted cord- 5 skeins - 902
Weeks Dye Works Wool Fabric - 1 Fat Quarter - 1333 Lancaster Red
Kreinik Custom Corder™ (mini drill)
Polyester stuffing
Basic sewing supplies

Piece contains cross stitch over two linen threads and cross stitch over one linen thread (diagrams provided).

I encourage you to use floss and fabric colors that match your personality and style.

About the design: This is the first set of holiday ornaments; Christmas Wishes Volume 2 and Christmas Wishes Volume 3 will be available October 2005. More holiday ornaments to follow in 2006!

One design would make an adorable small framed sampler! These pieces were designed with gift-giving in mind.
