We're back from Colorado! My house is a mess! And I don't care!
I am sooooo happy to be home, despite the fact that we had a fantastic time skiing.. the only disappointment of the whole trip was that Bre couldn't be with us bc she had classes to attend. (Btw, I'm very proud of you, Breanna, for updating your blog more frequently. It keeps me from being tempted to wander over to your Facebook page to see your other college experiences, which in turn could possibly give me a heart attack.)(Just kidding.)
As promised, I'm going to show you the new Hares' Christmas, to be released during the Online Needlework Show on April 15th. It will be on the Kelmscott Designs page, so if you'd like to order one, let your local or online needlework shop know, and if they're registered with the show, they can order it for you.
***Before posting the photo though, I have an IMPORTANT CHART CORRECTION to let you know about! It has been brought to my attention that there is a centering error on the Garden of Eerie chart. The chart marks the center point (for those of you who start in the middle) at 98 wide and 126 high. The actual center marks are 98 wide and 77 high. (When designing this chart, I added the supplemental alphabet at the last minute, and overlooked the incorrect centering marks; the incorrect marks include the alphabet to be stitched in the design, and it's not supposed to be.) You have my sincerest apologies for the oversight.***
Okay, here is Hares' Christmas! It's a little larger than the other Hares designs (134w x 77h) and retails for $9.00. (The price increase is due to necessary packaging and printing changes.) It uses Gentle Arts Sampler Threads in the following colors:
Raven
Roasted Marshmallow
Cameo Pink
Brandy
Old Hickory
Weathered Barn
Endive
Baby Spinach
Portabella
Wood Trail
Cornhusk
Apple Cider
The fabric I chose is 36 ct. Vintage Buttercream by Lakeside Linens. If you like the mini pompom trim, I bought it at Wal-Mart, and it was originally pure white. I liked it better after a Lipton tea bath!
I hope you like it! For once, I've gotten something seasonal released in plenty of time to stitch it! ;)
I love this!!! My favorite Hare design thus far. The colors are gorgeous and the pom pom fringe is such a wonderful finishing idea.
