Reindeer Games: The Huddle


I"m happy to announce that the new Christmas Ornament kit is now available. It is stitched up with 8 shades of brown silk by Carrie's Threads. The one yard of each included is enough to stitch it three times over on the 28 or 32 count (using 2 strands) or six times on 40 count. Your kit comes with 3 "noses" for Rudolph and your choice of fabric counts.

  Kit ($14): Extra Fabric Cut ($2)
28 Count Cashel Sand Linen
 
 
32 Count Belfast Lt. Sand Linen
 
 
40 Count Sandstone Linen
 
 

You might need to look twice and reread the title to see the reindeer. Thats a whole lot of antlers!
