Joyeux Noel by the Drawn Thread

May 31, 2018 By patgeary

This little beauty has been sitting in the drawer for 15 years as it is now 2018 and I stitched it in 2003. I could not even remember the designer of the chart. When looking over what to send off to be finished, I decided this one deserved it. So off to The Twisted Stitcher it went. I love what she did with it.

Joyeux Noel by The Drawn Thread.

The design is 63 x 63 stitches and the suggested fabric was 36 Count Summer Khaki Edinburgh linen. I do not stitch on linen but not sure what fabric I used. It looks like either 28 or 32ct lambswool of some kind. The suggested floss was Threadworx and DMC floss and Kreinik blending filament. I can tell I used the Kreinik for the small start at the top of the tree an the rest was probably DMC as that was all I used at the time. Not sure which embellishments came with the kit but the package says: Embellished with beads, jade gemstone hearts and 6mm black buttons. Chart Pack includes chart and embellishments. I see the hearts and black buttons on mine but not the others. I wish I knew what I did with the chart so I could stitch it again.
