Stitching in Texas

For hand stitching here in Texas, I packed the

Vintage Christmas Cross Stitch

which I started last December.

I started this project Here

by stitching the white border and grid.

Now I am adding the cute Christmas motifs in the squares.

I have learned to "stitch in hand"

without a frame, this year and it makes my project more portable.

After seeing one of these online on the

Fat Quarter Stitch Facebook Group

that had a limited palate that I really liked,

I have decided to also limit mine.

I am using mostly the aurifloss that I bought last year

but will be supplementing with some DMC floss in Christmas colors.

So far I am happy with my progress.

Have  Happy Thanksgiving Weekend with you and yours!
