Christmas Projects.

Post by Rose »

I am loving my angel but it was gertting me down with all of the color changes so I pulled out my Snowmen that I want to do as Christmas cards for family and friends. While gathering the floss together I discovered that this must be an older book of patterns. It is calling for DMC 790 :o , that color is no longer made by DMC. It was one that they discontinued. I had to replace it with DMC 970.

This is the book I am using and they are so cute. I am loving it. I will try to put up a picture tomorrow morning. :x:

So here is what I was able to do last night. It is still hard to see the white in the pictures. But the arm on the right side is started.
