To all my Needle ‘n Thread Friends, I wish you and yours a Christmas full of joy and many blessings!
I wanted to stitch you up a nice Christmas card this year, but all I managed was a bit of fun in Photoshop:
May your Christmas be a peaceful one – and may you squeeze in some quiet time on the side for stitching! Just remember: don’t stitch and drink eggnog at the same time!
The Medallion Project will be my primary needlework focus over the next month. In addition to the Medallion, I’m stitching up a monogram and working out step-by-step instructions and some video tutorials on monogram embroidery, for an online class that will be announced in the new year. I’m also working on a miniature goldwork project that is…. well. Miniature. These projects will keep me good and occupied, especially during the 12 Days of Christmas give-away series that begins tomorrow. After January 6th, I should have plenty of stitching updates for you!
See you tomorrow, with the First Day of Christmas give-away, which includes some gorgeous kits and an instructional DVD.
Merry Christmas, my friends!
Merry Christmas, Mary! Thank you for all of your help. Your blog is one of my first stops in the morning- always entertaining and informative. Hope your holidays are wonderful.
Merry Christmas – I’ve sure enjoyed my year with you, learning so much and enjoying all your pictures. I’m looking forward to the next, for sure! Karen
Dear Mary, Have a blessed Christmas and may your day be filled with warmth, love and joy. I hope it will not be to cold a day. Here in Cape Town we have a balmy sunny day of 28C or 82F. I am so happy for all the holidaymakers to have a perfect Christmas day. Lots of love xxx Elza

Merry Christmas Mary. Wishing you and everyone else a joyous and healthy 2012.
Merry Christmas Mary!! This is my first one with you and I want you to know that you have brought me a lot of joy this year. I have two newsletters that I am signed up for; yours and C.O. Farmer (scriptures on Weds. and Sun.). It is these two that keep me going through the week. Thank you for the time and care you put into your beautiful site. I have learned so much.
Your friend,
Melissa

Merry Christmas to all of you. What would we do without our Mary? Looking forward to learning more, seeing more projects and getting in as much stitching as possible. I have my projects set out for next year.
Always good advice to be found at NeedlenThread! I’ll try to remember to put the egg nog away before I pick up my handwork!
Merry Christmas!
