About this pattern

A snow globe with a little red pickup truck inside, bringing the Christmas tree home. The glass is a round of sky blue stitched solid, with single white snowflakes falling and a floor of white snow; the truck faces right, with a slim green fir hung with red baubles standing in its bed, a window you see the sky through, darker red fenders, gray tires with white hubs and a white headlight. The globe sits in a low red base with a darker red band. A piece for a small hoop, a card front or a tree ornament. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 51 by 54 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

51 stitches wide by 54 high: 2,264 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Baby Blue 3755, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Red 321 and 4 more).
