A christmas table cloth I stitched about ten years ago!!Still in perfect condition, I take turns to spread it every christmas with another red table cloth that I have fabric painted...The green colour of the fabric is not that bright, but a sombre shade...At that time I couldn't find a bright green fabric wide enough to cover my table and reach down to the sides.. Hence I had to satisfy myself with this solemn green hue and work on it.
The embroidery is mostly back stitch and satin..Gold metallics have been used for the bells and the flame of the candle..As well the holly leaves are also edged with the matallics..There's a santa peeping from behind a christmas tree, an angel and a few wrapped gifts I stitched due to my li'l daughter's insistence at that time..At the center there is an embroidered christmas greeting ,"Merry Christmas".
