Jo has asked us to post a Christmas themed picture and favorite Christmas song. If you click on the link I just provided above you will go directly to the Advent Calendar and see a different piece of Christmas needlework for each day and a different Christmas song too!
This December floral wreath is by Trésors de boîtes à couture. I stitched it one over one on 25ct white Zweigart Dublin linen with DMC.
I thought about a few songs, but they have been posted already. I love this one very much. It is an older one, not much played any more. Do any of you know 'The Christmas Shoes' by NewSong? I cry every single time I hear it. There is your warning.😉 Here is the video.
Merry Christmas my friends!
"And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!'" -Luke 2:13-14 NKJV
Stitching and praying,
Vickie

So many songs on this hop that I never heard before, this was one for teary eyes! Love your Christmas wreath, it will be perfect for your printers box.
ReplyDeleteVickie, your December wreath stitch is beautiful. I will give a look/listen to the link of your favorite song later. Have a blessed Sunday!
ReplyDeleteLovely December wreath! Blessings to you &family this Christmas...
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel about picking a song and watching other participants chose one you were thinking of. I have in previous years been early in the month for the Advent blog, this year I have a later date and keep changing my mind about the song. Enjoyed (is that the right word for a teary song) your choice. Hope you have a great Christmas.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful December flower wreath.
ReplyDeleteI love this months wreath and you've stitched it beautifully!
ReplyDeleteLovely stitching Vickie, have a great day
ReplyDeleteA perfect wreath for December, Vickie! I have heard that song before and I always get a bit teary eyed as well :)
ReplyDeleteI love your wreath, it's so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful song, have you seen the movie? Tears!
Thanks for taking part in the Advent Calendar Blog Hop this year.
ReplyDeleteThe little wreath is my favourite design from that series and looks wonderful stitched over one.
Thanks for sharing the song too, it definitely comes with a "3 Tissue Warning" for weepiness!
Why hello!!!! Another over one stitcher, I'm so glad to find another one, folks think I'm crazy, but I have to say, this little wreath is adorable over one!! (I have this pattern saved in my stash, now I have incentive to stitch it!!) The Christmas Shoes always make me cry...but it is a very touching story. Thanks for sharing your stitching and stories with us! Have a Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYour wreath is l9vely, and so is your song choice, which was new to me. Merry Christmas!

ReplyDeleteI like this little wreath very much, even the ivy (or mistletoe?) is lovely. I hear this song a lot! Our area has a "Christmas station" so it pops up every now and then. It's a very (bitter)sweet sentiment.
