Description Yet another Christmas present submission. Last one for awhile, I promise ('tis Yuletart time, so that's my #1 focus, and I can't post them just yet.)

This one is for my dad's girlfriend.

Technicalities: Stitched 2-over-1 on 18-count Off White Aida with 1 color of DMC floss. Pattern from [link]

Two strands of floss over one hole in the fabric.

It looks great.
It's a sweet pattern all in the one colour isn't it?

This is just precious - I keep meaning to do needlework Christmas cards and put it off then don't get around to it - maybe next year

The actual stitching is easy. The backstitching is a bit of a pain though lol.
