Christmas Lights – 2010 Needlepoint Club
Christmas Lights is now open for subscriptions for this delightful twelve-month series of needlepoint ornaments. Based on old-fashioned Christmas Lights, each ornament has one mixed thread stitch for the bulb and a second stitch for the base.
They are designed for Advanced Beginning stitchers, But anyone who is comfortable with stitch guides should be able to stitch them
There are two options for stitching each light. The top picture shows the first option. In this all the ornaments use the same thread for the base and for the background. In the second option, the threads used in the bulb are used for the base and for the background.
The ornaments each take one shade of Watercolours and one (sometimes 2) metallic. If you pick the first option, you will also need a background thread and a metallic ribbon for the bases.
More than one ornament can be made from each skein of Watercolours.
The instructions are mailed monthly about the 15th of each month. They will include the printed instructions with color photos of both options and a line drawn canvas. The monthly cost is $12 or $100 if you pay for the year in one payment.
Subscriptions to the program will be open until January 1, 2009. If you are interested, please email me at napaneedlepoint @ gmail.com or call (707) 738-1463 and leave a message.
