An embroidered needlepoint Christmas stocking: the Nativity design. Stitch and embroidery together give the face a worked surface a print cannot copy.
Sized to hang on the mantel and actually hold gifts, not just decorate. Hang a row of different designs and the mantel looks collected rather than bought as a set.
A full Nativity worked in needlepoint against a starlit royal-blue sky, Mary in blue, an angel in a green gown, a shepherd and a camel above a foreground of white lambs, all bound in red piping with a matching red loop. The devotional choice for a mantel that starts with the manger.

The ground is covered stitch by stitch and the highlights are embroidered on top, the way this line has always been built. Seasonal designs are made in limited runs: once a Christmas design sells through it is usually gone until next year. Worth buying for the family that unpacks the same decorations every December, or for your own house.
