Merry Christmas, A Christmas Sampler for 2026

Just in time to stitch for Christmas!  Our Merry Christmas sampler was stitched on 40-Count Thornfield from Needle and Flax using one strand of Needlepoint Silks over two threads of linen.  Cross stitch, straight stitches, French knots and Algerian eye stitches are used.  I originally designed this piece with the Christmas tree stitched over one thread of linen and have included that chart in case stitching over one thread is your thing!  The stitch count is 108 wide by 133 high.  Needlepoint Silk colors used are:  544, 546, 553, 561, 563, 564, 621, 635, 763, 764, 772, 856, 877, 962, 963, 976, 991.  If you plan to stitch the over-one Christmas tree, add:  206, 251, 774, 993.
