Naughty or Nice?

Naughty or Nice?

It’s the annual dilemma isn’t it? I had fun with this one and took it a step further by including berry designs too!  In each case, the “nice” portion of the design is lovely and orderly - perfectly suited to the well-behaved person on Santa's list. However, the “’naughty” side has some issues - and apparently there was a serious situation regarding the arrangement of the holly decorations this year!

Oops! Early printings of Naughty or Nice?  have a symbol error on the berry charts. The 'checkmark' symbol is stitched using Oilcoth floss, and should be a bold 'x' symbol. Also, the straight stitch 'star' motifs on the Nice Berry are worked using one ply of Bee's Knees floss.
