Ornament Collection

Three embroidered ornament patterns of traditional flower and fruit motifs are a lovely embellishment for Christmas or anytime of year. For their ten year anniversary, we present these three wonderful designs together. Each measures about 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" and all are stitched with Au Ver A Soie Soie d'Alger threads on 32 count linen. A fabric alternative suggestion would be three pieces of 5" x 5" 32-count Cream Linen from Zweigart, as a more exact evenweave will produce more pleasing results (notice the elongation of my models in the photograph!) Any shared colors between the designs can also be a single shared skein of floss.
