A Challenge Reveal

It's reveal day for the Needlecraft Haven Monthly Ornament Challenge. This month the design was either of a pair of Santa designs from Kissy Cross
I chose the version with the trees, and worked it on a perforated wood blank.


I got the wood blank from Greek Art on Etsy
I had to jiggle the trees about a little bit and miss off the foreground fence to make it fit. Once the stitching was finished I just stuck a piece of felt over the back and added a baker's twine hanger for a really simple finish.

    That's a nice different way to display a piece.
    Those wooded plaques could be very versatile.
