Tablecloth Christmas Gnomes

A ready-made, hemmed tablecloth with the Christmas gnomes printed straight onto the fabric: you stitch by following the design, with no counting involved. Alongside cross stitch there are a few decorative stitches for outlines and small details, all explained in the instructions.

The printed design washes out, so once the stitching is done a simple wash leaves only the embroidery on the ecru cotton. An embroidery hoop or frame, moved along the borders as you go, makes the work easier. It suits anyone with a little stitching experience who wants a piece to actually use, on a round or square table through the festive season.
