Where's Rudolph?




There's Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen, on Comet and Cupid....where's Donder, Blitzen & Rudolph??? Must be playing that reindeer game of hide and seek from old St. Nick!

This design titled WHERE'S RUDOLPH was worked on 28 count Cashel Flax linen using 1 strand of floss over 1 thread. The design frames nicely in a 5" x 7" picture frame. I purchased an inexpensive frame from my local discount retailer and gave it a coat of Rittenhouse Red (Old Village brand) paint and then gently sanded and stained it with Minwax. I love the red frame around this design. I then propped the picture on an old iron coat hook of sorts that was a find at a local antique shop...makes a unique easel. I am looking forward to enjoying this design this holiday season in my red & green living room.

We are now taking advance orders for this new pattern and will begin shipping early next week. Pattern is posted on the website under the NEW ITEMS category. We are offering this design as a pattern only or a kit (includes pattern, linen & floss).

The Parson Brown cross stitch design is progressing nicely & should have it ready to go by Thanksgiving. Will keep you posted on its progress!

Happy stitchin,
brenda

  3. Brenda,

    How beautiful your 'Where's Rudolph' turned out.

    I just love to come to your blog and site just to gaze and drool at your work. For some reason, it leaves me feeling content and soothed inside:)

    Wooly hugs,
