About this pattern

A white Christmas tea set seen from the side: a fat round teapot with a matching cup and saucer beside its spout. The teapot has a sprig of holly on its belly, two prickly green leaves with red berries between them, a red band under the lid, a red foot, two small green leaves on the lid and a round red knob like a berry. Its spout is on the left and its loop handle on the right, and a pale blue-gray shade runs down its right side. The cup has a red rim, its own small holly sprig and a square loop handle, and stands on a wide saucer.

62 stitches wide by 31 high: 935 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Red 321 and 2 more).
