'Twas the Night Before Christmas at The Enriched Stitch

Linda took a class from Mary Susan at Enriched Stitch in Connecticut.   Lucky us--she reported back on all the fun ideas!

The canvas is Rebecca Wood's "'Twas the Night Before Christmas."  I suspect if you call the shop and ask nicely they will kit this up for you.

Have Yourself a Needlepoint Christmas!

Finishers are working late these days, trying to get everything made up for Christmas. I am going to collect all the gorgeous photos the shops are posting here so you can spend Christmas Eve enjoying all the lovely pieces that are out there somewhere, embellishing our Needlepoint Christmas. 

So put on the Christmas music, pour yourself your favorite beverage, and dream!

By the way, if you don't celebrate Christmas, enjoy Rochelle's lovely Hannukah pieces.

If you celebrate Christmas and you like classic style, you'll love these stockings Kristen stitched and finished.

And if you don't celebrate Christmas, or you are just sick of the holidays and winter in general, here is Linda's finished piece, just for you.
