Last of the Christmas Finishes



Here's the last of the I-couldn't-show-you-at-the-time finishes. This is "Catrina's Christmas" by Keslyn. I stitched it for my friend and local needlework shopowner, Donna. Lots of fun stitches and intricate combinations. I love the geometry of it. The ribbon made of bead loops is a nice, but amazingly easy, touch.

When I showed this to my stitch group about half of them wanted to do it and asked me to teach it. So I came up with a spring colorway.
