    Default Cross Stitched Patriotic Santa

    I just finished stitching out this design from Sudberry House. I am going to frame it and put it in our quilting guild's auction that is coming up in November. It took several hours and a lot of patience, but I plan on stitching out at least one more for friends who have family serving overseas.

    Great piece. I used to do a lot of cross stitch, but had to quit due to an eye disese.

    I did this cross stitching on my Bernina 830!!! Many people who see it in person think that it must have been done by hand, but that machine is remarkable and the digitizers who do these patterns are amazing!

    I am impressed! I truly thought it was by hand.
