Get this chart and stitch these TWO gorgeous Ornaments!
Poinsettia Tuffet: This design is taken from the “Christmas Gazebo” Sampler. Luscious poinsettias are stitched with rich and deeply shaded overdyed silk ribbons. Elegant Hardanger includes Dove’s Eyes, and Partial Greek Crosses and gives structure to the floral motifs. This ornament doubles as a pincushion ‘tuffet’ adding that special touch beside your holiday stitching chair! Easy to finish, and fun to make, stitch a few of these ornaments for your stitching friends this Christmas!
Tudor Christmas Tassel: Hang it beautifully on your tree! Three stitched sides are sewn together easily and quickly, and you can even find some gorgeous beads to add sparkle and ‘bling’ to this unique shape. Each side has a wonderful Tudor motif using overdyed silk threads and metallic gold, and at the bottom there is a lacy Hardanger fringe - exquisite!
