Another Sunday afternoon!

Another Sunday afternoon!  I just finished stitching and beading HOLLY JOLLY & Tis The Season by Shannon Christine Designs as part of a Christmas Ornament Club I joined!

What beautiful charts, shading that is subtle but makes the design POP!

I stitched both  charts on Charles Craft 14ct Navy Blue, using DMC threads and GAST threads as well. Mill Hill beads were attached as called for in the chart! (a few substitues: instead of Kreinik very fine braid I used DMC 729, instead of B5200 bright white I used GAST Chalk). 

I chose the background fabric and trims but I would like to have them all stitched and then assemble, it's just easier so that all look the same when finished! Can't wait!
