BUT... I did take time to post on my website another seasonal freebie pattern for all you seasonal stitchers out there. It's called HOLLY & IVY and it looks like this:
It's a small 4.25" x 4.25" square, stitched on 18 ct. mono canvas. I used an assortment of Rainbow Gallery threads, as well as #5 pearl cottons. The original variegated thread I used - Overture V63 - has been discontinued, BUT, you can still get Encore E63, which is the same elegant variegated color, but a slightly finer thread, so use 2 ply of that instead of the 1 ply of Overture.
Anyway, I stitched this cutie several years ago, and came across the model a few weeks ago, remembered how much I liked it...and thought I'd share it now with you.
And if you want to stitch up a matching companion piece for it, check this out:
It's called HOLIDAY SQUARE. For this freebie, please visit Rainbow Gallery's website: www.rainbowgallery.com and click on their FREE PATTERNS page. You can download this pattern, which I recently sent to Rainbow Gallery as a special seasonal treat.
HAPPY STITCH-FILLED HOLIDAYS!!!

Thank you so much for the Christmas designs! I just got the canvas and threads for Indian Autumn! You are amazing! Have you worked on the Christmas Deer House by M. Shirley that you started last year? I love that piece and am very interested in how a talented designer interprets painted canvas. Your posts always make my day! Judy
