Christmas in Shades of Blue
When I decided to start some stitching for Winter and Christmas one of the projects I decided to do was finish a Christmas sampler I started in 2009. This was so much fun to stitch I have no idea why I ever put it aside. This sampler was a French SAL given by Carole. She also designed a Christmas sampler in 2010 which I will start this year to finish next year, and she designed the Seasons 2011 SAL I am currently stitching. I think her designs are beautiful!This sampler is stitched with many shades of blue DMC threads. I don't know if the photo shows the different shades because some of them are very close in color. In the circles are my initials, and we had the option to stitch the word Noel or the year. Don't you just love this delicate tree?
I can see from reading many blogs that everyone is in the holiday spirit with decorating, stitching and baking. I hope your weekend is filled with all these things that bring smiles! Enjoy!

Nancy, your Noel piece is really pretty. Love it in the blue colors. I am still stitching this Noel piece on each end of a table runner in the red and green colors.
Congratulations on finishing it.
