Today is another good day to stitch on more Christmas designs. I think it's safe to say I have a lot of Christmas designs sitting around waiting for me to stitch them. At least I've pulled out several this month to get them started. It's time for a Durene Jones large project today. It's still not very big, but considering how many smalls she creates, it's a decent size.
I originally found this in a magazine, but you can purchase it from her Etsy store now.I thought I'd start with outlining some of the boxes to make it a bit easier to complete.
Believe in the Magic of Christmas by Durene Jones
stitched 2 over 2 on 32ct Murano Polynesium by Chromatic Alchemy
stitched as charted, DMC 349 so far
This is about 350 stitches, so it's a decent start. This will be another long-term one and maybe finishing a box now and then will feel like a mini-finish.
I hope you've all been having a good week so far!
Happy Stitching,

This is a cute one and those blocks will make nice little mini-finishes.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Any way to motivate a finish. :)
