A ready-made tablecloth, hemmed and finished with a woven border, on which the Christmas design is printed directly: you simply follow the coloured lines, with no counting involved, and the print disappears in the wash leaving only the embroidery. The motifs use a handful of basic stitches, including french knots and stem stitch, repeated around the border and in the corners.
It suits anyone who has already tried freehand embroidery, or who would like to start with a project that gives reliable results. A hoop makes the work easier and is not part of the kit; the red wreath in the photo is only a prop. Once finished, press the piece from the back and bring it to the table for the holidays.
