Retro Christmas



When I bought this black candy cane print, I wondered what I could do with it. Wow! Here is a surprise! The Blonde Duck chose these retro Christmas embroidery patterns to be worked into a pillow.



I held the embroideries up to my fabric stash to see what fabrics to pair with them, and out popped the candy canes and these red dots. It's perfect. I wish I had thought of it last month and not at the last minute!
