UPDATE --GUESS HOW LONG IT TOOK TO STITCH THIS OUT

UPDATE - SUNDAY 8:00PM --Made another Merry Christmas - this on an actual towel. It will need to be washed and then starched and ironed but it looks really good I think. I've trimmed all the strings and everything.







I had fun stitching this out. I wouldn't want to do a bunch of them -- it took me over two hours!! One reason is because I had to change the thread color 32 times -- that's a lot of times to change thread colors and rethread the needle. I also slowed my machine down because the stitching is pretty dense and I was afraid if I went full speed I might break the needle. As it was, the thread broke a couple of times but nothing major and I just think it is a really fun design. It would look nice on a hand towel or even in a frame to sit on a shelf or something. I worked on a couple of other projects last night and today too but can't pictures of those yet. Hope everyone is have a nice weekend.
