Across: 52 Fabric: In the photo for this chart, black 7-ct fabric was used with Rainbow Gallery gold metallic for the letters, #5 green pearl cotton for the leaves; and red "pony" beads for the berries. Substitute French knots for Colonial Knots or beads for the berries.

When
choosing stitching fibers, take the background fabric into consideration.
On Red fabric: Stitch gold holly leaves with deep green letters; white letters. On dark colors or medium neutrals: Stitch gold letters and green leaves. Determine the number of strands or weight of your stitching fiber depending on the fabric "count." You have so many choices! |
You can stitch with any shade of green, red and gold. Home decor and fashion trends have clearly (and forever!) broadened the concept of “Christmas red” to include everything from Victorian mauve to colonial burgundy and “Christmas green” from hunter green to deep shades of olive. Have fun and do what pleases you! Timid about color? Go to your favorite Christmas cross stitch project and use the colors called for in that chart! |
