Last year I saw this sampler featured on an Instagram post. I was smitten and simply had to get the chart. One of my daughters had given me an Etsy gift card, so I headed over to Blue Ribbon Designs and promptly ordered it.
Below you see a screenshot I took from the Etsy shop -- gives you a much clearer look at the design.
If you can't read it, the words say "The smell of pine/ The crackling fire/All the snow one could desire/Hot cocoa with marshmallows/Cookies in the kitchen/Treasure the gifts that winter has given."I'm currently working on a smaller cross-stitch piece featuring a snow globe design, so I haven't started this yet. Although fancier fabric and floss are called for, I am unashamedly a DMC, 14-count Aida type of stitcher. I have my floss and this fabric in the "White Chocolate" color. So thankful for 123Stitch, their great prices and flat rate shipping!
That will be so beautiful when it is done! Where will you put it? Do you have a special place in mind? It will be a special winter/Christmas treasure for certain.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a special place in mind for it yet. Maybe in our front hallway where I have other Christmas art on display in season. I think this sampler will be nice all winter long.
DeleteThat is so cute!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it? Looking forward to starting it!
