Christmas word tree by M Designs

Finished this one on 7/16 and just ironed it today. I stitched it on 32ct Belfast Linen by Silkweaver...I think it was a solo cut. Thread is DMC Rayon S5744 (30744). I will be making the buttons to add on. Note on rayon: Bees wax works great to tame this beast rather than Thread Heaven. And use short lengths

Vikki, this is simply lovely!!! I love the fabric and fiber used on it. It really makes it! I have this chart in my stash and see from yours I really need to stitch it up. Thanks for sharing!

Congrats on the finish, it looks lovely! Ad you're so right about this floss... I never try bee wax, next time I'm sure I will.
