OCF – CHAT 042
This was the very first Christmas Mystery wayyy back – you can recreate it here with all it’s glittering parts and ornaments.
It is no longer available in the class form of 12 parts, but if you follow the instructions, you will work exactly in the order it was published then.
A beautiful scene of a small Cherub on a fluffy cloud holding a sparkling star, baubles and fir branches, a burning candle and the center medallion of Mother Mary with the Child – which can be stitched over one or over two – just to your taste.
Besides the normal cross stitch, you will use well explained Special Stitches for added dimension and texture.
Smaller motifs can well be used to create greeting cards or small gifts!
A lovely choice of different threads and braids, beads and crystals make the stitching an entertaining experience.

Recommended Fabric: This design was originally intended for a blue and green mottled fabric called “Taupo”, Hand-dyed from Country Stitch Fabrics. Other choices could be a bright wintery blue, dark navy or black..?
