Christmas Delights

I did this little stitchery today while I spent a couple of hours visiting my Dad, who is in respite care.



I know I said I was sticking with DMC thread, but I just couldn't resist this Cottage Garden thread called Running Postman. It is a Gail Pan pattern and it's the thread she used.
It will become a little pillow........a little Christmas gift.

Hope you're having a lovely weekend.
