"Elegant
Holiday Tree" designed by Mary
Waldsmith
This ornament is a Petit Project in canvas work from the EGA Education
Department, with a skill level of beginner, so it can be stitched up
quickly.
It is worked on 18-count canvas, eggshell color with gold, in Neon Rays,
Caron Impressions, Caron Watercolours, and Kreinik braid, all in tones of
pale beige, cream and natural. Stitches include basketweave, Milanese,
Cashmere, and Scotch (or Hesitation), with the braid mixed in with the other
threads for added sparkle. Stitching hints and several suggestions
for finishing are included. We hope to begin some of the finishing
after lunch.
This meeting will take place at Duncaster Senior Residence in Bloomfield,
CT.
Location: Duncaster

Although the picture following looks very silvery, the actual piece is an
elegant rendering in off-whites.
