Thank you for your kind words. The aida was much easier to work on than that tea dyed monaco I used to do the first one, Now to buy frames for them.

Framed, didn't use glass because of the beads and also I have to mail them. Great frames for only $2.50 each too

Beautiful! How many strands did you use on the red fabric -- the coverage is superb.

Both are beautiful! Although it is the same design, they are different is their own ways. You must be really pleased with them.

Just two strands, I used B5200, I used regular white on the tea dyed monaco which I think was 32 count and not 28 as it said. There is a size difference between the two. But still thrilled with the way they turned out. (it only took one skein with a little left over)

How different they have turned out! And they look marvellous in their frames.

Both of these Christmas minis are so sweet.

Linda, sorry I missed the framed Snowflakes - they are gorgeous and I can well imagine that the latest finish was "fun to stitch". Great updates and all beautifully stitched. :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:
