Song of Christmas

"Song of Christmas" is a collection of all of the Christmas requests that Marilyn has had over the last year. There is a Santa holding the Christ Child, angels, and a glistening Christmas Tree. The rich reds and golds against the deep green of the decorated tree truly reflect the essence of Christmas. The only thing left to imagine is the delicate "Song" of the angels. This design will be a treasure and continue for years to delight holiday stitchers.
