The challenge for this fortnight was set by my team mate Christine, and she wants us to make a Christmas card.
The amount of time I spend on Christmas cards varies depending on how close to Christmas it is, but there's still a while to go now, so I've been making some stitched cards.
The tree and pot pattern is from Stitching Cards and is copyright to them. I bought the pattern a few years ago, and I love it, so this year, I've done several in different colour schemes, and I've added the stitched frame to complete the effect.
The varigated thread I used each time is from Sulky. I do love their Blendable range. The gold thread is from Anchor.
The metallic thread this time is silver and from Krenik.
In each case, I've varied the way I've stitched the pot, and I've added some glitter gel pen to complete the effect.
So, quite a good start on my Christmas cards, but I've still got a fair number to do. I do hope you can join us this time.

Wow! These are all gorgeous. Do you make your own designs or are there patterns for these?
There are patterns, available from https://www.stitchingcards.com/. I added the frame.
