A kit for anyone who likes to send a hand-stitched Christmas card: the design is worked in counted cross stitch on the ice blue Aida, with back stitch for the outlines and French knots for the small details. The card mount and envelope come with the kit, so once the stitching is done you simply fix the work behind the window and fold the card.
Threads, needle, chart and instructions are all included: you only need a pair of small scissors and, if you prefer, a little hoop. It is a compact project to take along with you, and the finished piece can be framed instead of posted.
