A Country Stitches Christmas Kit!

I'm excited to share with you a fun little holiday stitch...coming soon!
 
"SNOW BIRD PINKEEP"

It's a tin snowflake base with a perfect little spot to insert a cross stitched winter-themed pincushion.
The tin base measures just 2 1/4" tall by 9" across.
The base is that wonderful metallic color...not to silver and not too "gold-ish", sort of reminds me of the old finish on a mercury tree bulb.  The points of the snowflake are gently bent, giving the piece such a lovely time-worn patina.
 
Unfortunately, I was only able to get a limited supply of the snowflake bases.   I purchased what the manufacturer had left, when the bases are gone...that is it!
 
The "Snow Bird" snowflake pinkeep kit is cutely packaged in a box, with all the necessary goodies included (linen, floss, batting, cardboard, vintage ribbon & tin base). 
You will need to supply a needle,
some glue,
 and a little free time for stitching...
 
A limited edition kit sold exclusively through
No preorders will be taken on this item.
 
Watch for this item to go on sale on the website
sometime during the first week of November...
more news to follow, with exact release date.
 
 
With thy Needle & Thread,
Brenda

    Brenda - wonderful design. It's beautiful. I'm wondering - will it also be released as a chart? I think it would make an adorable ornament or a small framed piece. Thanks for all of your designs!

    What a lovely piece, it pulls at my heart strings to buy and stitch up. I'm hoping I'm one of the lucky ones who manages to get a kit before they sell out.

    You truly are a tease...
