A favorite season of mine is Christmas. I love what Christmas represents. I love giving gifts and
spending time with my family. One of my favorite times of the season is decorating the tree with
my family with Christmas carols playing in the background. This is a nod to a favorite carol of
mine. I created a drum, but the banding would also look fabulous on a spool in a dough bowl
with the bell as a pillow. This was so much fun to create, and I hope you enjoy.
Stitch Count Side Band 300×50, Bell Top 93×82
Model was stitched on Atomic Ranch Dune 36 count using the called for overdyed threads.
Special Thanks to: my good friend Kim Lewis for stitching the model.

I love this!!!! It’s so nostalgic! ❤️❤️
I am working on this beautiful project. I h Ave completed the side band and am getting ready to start the bell top. The chart I bought has a printing problem at line 21 down from the top all the way across the page. It looks as if the printer squeezed the line together making it difficult to read the symbols. Can you help me with this problem? I will start stitching from the bottom of the chart (line 74) and work toward the top. Thank you for your help on this. I have enjoyed working on the band and really look forward to finishing this drum.
I’m glad you are enjoying the project. I LOVE looking at mine during the holidays. I’m sorry about the printing issue. I’ll send you an email shortly to see if we can get this sorted. I appreciate you reaching out.
