    Default Quilting and Cross stitch - I love it
    Love both quilting and cross-stitching, and will spend evenings cross-stitching while watching TV. Have too many already framed, so we decided to combine it with quilting and came up with this quilt. Each cross-stitch took about a month and were from an old Leisure Arts book about old Santas from around the world. It came together even better than I hoped and we will enjoy for Christmases to come. Hope you like.

    It is wonderful. I used to cross stitch before I started quilting - thinking I need to get back into it

    What a beautiful combination! I am amazed! The Counted Cross stitch is so detailed and your sashing is perfect. Definitely an heirloom.
